The analyzer detector system continuous angle multiple energy analysis will be installed on the cold-neutron triple-axis spectrometer RITA-2 at SINQ, PSI. CAMEA is optimized for efficiency in the horizontal scattering plane enabling rapid and detailed mapping of excitations. As a novelty the design employs a series of several sequential upward scattering analyzer arcs. Each arc is set to a different, fixed, final energy and scatters neutrons towards position sensitive detectors. Thus, neutrons with different final energies are recorded simultaneously over a large angular range. In a single data-acquisition many entire constant-energy lines in the horizontal scattering plane are recorded for a quasi-continuous angular coverage of about 60°. With a large combined coverage in energy and momentum, this will result in a very efficient spectrometer, which will be particularly suited for parametric studies under extreme conditions with restrictive sample environments (high field magnets or pressure cells) and for small samples of novel materials. In this paper we outline the concept and the specifications of the instrument currently under construction.

Assembly of graphene oxide reduced graphene oxide in a phospholipid monolayer at air-water interfaces.

Graphene and its derivatives, such as graphene oxide (GO) and reduced graphene oxide (rGO), have propelled advancements in biosensor research owing to their unique physicochemical and electronic characteristics. To ensure their safe and effective utilization in biological environments, it is crucial to understand how these graphene-based nanomaterials (GNMs) interact with a biological milieu. The present study depicts GNM-induced structural changes in a self-assembled phospholipid monolayer formed at an air-water interface that can be considered to represent one of the leaflets of a cellular membrane.

A harmonic analysis performed on long time series reveals a surprising magnitude of S constituent (exactly 1 cpd of frequency) in the horizontal velocity and echo amplitude, which prevails over the rest of diurnal constituents within this depth range, including K, despite being around 200 times smaller than it in the tide generating potential. High resolution echograms collected by a new instrument recently installed in the mooring line, point at the diel vertical migration of living acoustic scatterers (zooplankton) as the most reasonable cause.

Chin J Dent Res
December 2024
Objective: To establish precise positional references for orthognathic surgery by examining the relative positioning of the infraorbital foramen (IOF) in relation to the anterior nasal spine (ANS) and the mental foramen (MF) in relation to the pogonion (Pog).
Methods: A cohort of 115 patients with CBCT images was randomly selected for analysis. Distances and positional relationships between the IOF and ANS, as well as the MF and Pog, were measured using 3D reconstruction images.

Article Synopsis
- Carotenoids are important pigments found in plants and algae that have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory benefits, and they are also seen in some non-photosynthetic prokaryotes, but their role outside photosynthetic organisms is not well understood.
- This study analyzed terpenoid biosynthetic gene clusters in the Lactobacillaceae family, identifying crtMN genes related to C30 carotenoid production in 28 species across various genera.
- The presence of these genes is linked to habitat adaptation, with nomadic and insect-adapted Lactobacillaceae showing higher rates of C30 carotenoid production, which helps them resist UV stress in their environments.*
