Restrictive relationship exists between spectral resolution, spectral range and number of pixels of traditional Spatial Heterodyne Spectroscopy (SHS). The main difference between Asymmetric Spatial Heterodyne Spectroscopy (ASHS) and SHS accelerates the space of one grating from the beamsplitter. It greatly increases spectral resolution while system parameters remain unchanged. First of all, this paper elaborates the fundamentals of the ASHS, the derived formulas of the system parameters and theoretical relationship between grating offset and the spectral resolution increases. As an important parameter of the ASHS, offset is restricted by the pixel number of short double side interferogram and the spectral resolution requirements. According to the experimental breadboard parameters of laboratory, the selection principle and the results of the offset are presented. In the case of the same device parameters, two types of theoretical performance parameters are calculated. The simulation is carried out. The results show that two of them have the same spectral range, but the ASHS has a higher spectral resolution. The relationship between resolution and offset increased consistent with theoretical calculation. Finally the ASHS breadboard is calibrated with the monochromatic light scanning method. The derived spectral range and resolution are in good agreement with the theoretical value.

Odours released by objects in natural environments can contain information about their spatial locations. In particular, the correlation of odour concentration timeseries produced by two spatially separated sources contains information about the distance between the sources. For example, mice are able to distinguish correlated and anti-correlated odour fluctuations at frequencies up to 40 Hz, while insect olfactory receptor neurons can resolve fluctuations exceeding 100 Hz.

Migraine, a neurological disorder often accompanied by symptoms such as visual disturbances, nausea, and photophobia, involves complex interactions between genetic and environmental factors, while vascular factors are also implicated, influenced by both genetic predisposition and environmental triggers. This case report discusses a 41-year-old male with a history of migraine with visual aura, presenting with sudden left-eye visual loss. Comprehensive ophthalmologic examination revealed a central scotoma, while multimodal imaging, including spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT), showed focal alterations in the outer plexiform layer.

To describe the management and clinical course of 12 cases of pseudophakic aqueous misdirection syndrome (AMS). Twelve eyes of 12 Patients diagnosed with pseudophakic AMS between 2021 and 2022 were included. Best-corrected visual acuity, refraction, intraocular pressure (IOP), anti-glaucomatous medication, spectral domain ocular coherence tomography (SD-OCT) and postoperative complications were evaluated.

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are toxic contaminants with a widespread presence in diverse environmental contexts. Transformation processes of PAHs via degradation and biotransformation have parallels in humans, animals, plants, fungi, and bacteria. Mapping the transformation products of PAHs is therefore crucial for assessing their toxicological impact and developing effective monitoring strategies.

Liquid chromatography coupled to high-resolution mass spectrometry (LC-HRMS) is commonly used for identification of compounds in complex samples due to the high chromatographic and mass spectral resolution provided. In subsequent data processing workflows, it is imperative to preserve this resolution to fully exploit the data. "Region of interest" (ROI) algorithms were introduced as a better alternative to equidistant binning for compressing HRMS data because they better preserve the mass spectral resolution.
