A clear image of an observed object may deteriorate into unrecognizable speckle when encountering heterogeneous scattering media, thus it is necessary to recover the object image from the speckle. A method combining least square and semidefinite programming is proposed, which can be used for imaging through scattering media. The proposed method consists of two main stages, that is, media scattering characteristics (SCs) estimation and image reconstruction. SCs estimation is accomplished through LS concept after establishing a database of known object-and-speckle pairs. Image reconstruction is realized by solving an SDP problem to obtain the product of the unknown object image and its Hermitian transposition. Finally, the unknown object image can be reconstructed by extracting the largest rank-1 component of the product. Structural similarity (SSIM) index is employed as a performance indicator in speckle prediction and image reconstruction. Numerical simulations and physical experiments are performed to verify the feasibility and practicality of the proposed method. Compared with the existing phase shift interferometry mean square optimization method and the single-shot phase retrieval algorithm, the proposed method is the most precise to obtain the best reconstruction results with highest SSIM index value. The work can be used for exploring the potential applications of scattering media, especially for imaging through turbid media in biomedical, scattering property measurement, and optical image encryption.

The results of a comprehensive investigation into the structure and properties of nanodiamond soot (NDS), obtained from the detonation of various explosive precursors (trinitrotoluene, a trinitrotoluene/hexogen mixture, and tetryl), are presented. The colloidal behavior of the NDS particles in different liquid media was studied. The results of the scanning electron microscopy, dynamic light scattering, zeta potential measurements, and laser diffraction analysis suggested a similarity in the morphology of the NDS particle aggregates and agglomerates.

In this paper, we report on the measurement of the optical properties (absorption and scattering coefficients) of photoluminescent turbid media using a homemade integrating sphere setup equipped with a tunable monochromatic light source. The hemispherical reflectance and transmission data are analyzed with the radiative transfer equation using a Monte Carlo simulation-based lookup table to obtain the optical properties of the sample. The results are compared with the optical properties received from a classical integrating sphere setup equipped with a broadband white light source.

Viral infections and many other dangerous diseases are accompanied by the development of oxidative stress, which is a consequence of an increase in the level of the reactive oxygen species (ROS). In this regard, the search for effective antioxidants remains highly relevant. We tested fullerenol C(OH) in the context of the connection between its self-assembly in aqueous solutions and cell culture media, antiradical activity, UV cytoprotective action, and antiviral activity against international reference strains of influenza virus A(H1N1)pdm09, A(H3N2), and B subtypes in vitro on the MDCK cell line.

Article Synopsis
- Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are brief bursts of radio waves from distant galaxies, and their emission mechanisms are still debated, focusing on processes near a central engine versus shocks at large distances.
- Researchers measured two scintillation scales for FRB 20221022A, one linked to the Milky Way and the other to its host galaxy, which allowed them to determine the FRB's emission region size to be less than 3 x 10 kilometers.
- This size contradicts the large-distance model and suggests that the emission likely occurs close to a central compact object, supported by an observed S-shaped polarization angle, indicating a magnetospheric emission process.
