We present a mid-infrared spectroscopic system based on a spectral-coding approach enabled by a modified digital micromirror device (DMD). A supercontinuum source offering a confined mid-infrared laser beam is employed to perform gas measurements with this system. The performance, flexibility, and programmability enabled by the DMD is experimentally demonstrated by gas-cell measurements (CO, CH, NO, NO and CO). Full spectra are acquired in 14 ms at 10 nm spectral resolution and in 3.5 ms at 40 nm spectral resolution. Further, we employ the system for stand-off open-path spatially resolved CO measurements that fully exploit the laser emission properties - the bright and highly-collimated supercontinuum beam is scanned by a galvo mirror over a retroreflector array at a scalable remote distance. The measurement concept models a passing gas emitter under lab conditions; time and spatially resolved CO absorbance gas-plume images in the mid-infrared range are obtained.

Purpose: Proton magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging ( -MRSI) provides noninvasive spectral-spatial mapping of metabolism. However, long-standing problems in whole-brain -MRSI are spectral overlap of metabolite peaks with large lipid signal from scalp, and overwhelming water signal that distorts spectra. Fast and effective methods are needed for high-resolution -MRSI to accurately remove lipid and water signals while preserving the metabolite signal.

This paper presents progress made toward the overarching goal to adapt single-photon-counting microcalorimeters to magnetic fusion energy research and demonstrate the value of such measurements for fusion. Microcalorimeter spectrometers combine the best characteristics of x-ray instrumentation currently available on fusion devices: high spectral resolution similar to an x-ray crystal spectrometer and broad spectral coverage sufficient to measure impurity species from Be to W. As a proof-of-principle experiment, a NASA-built x-ray microcalorimeter spectrometer has been installed on the Madison Symmetric Torus (MST) at the Wisconsin Plasma Physics Laboratory.

Myocardial infarction (MI) is the leading cause of death and disability worldwide. It occurs when a thrombus forms after an atherosclerotic plaque bursts, obstructing blood flow to the heart. Prompt and accurate diagnosis is crucial for improving patient survival.

Purpose: We describe a case of non-traumatic macular hole in a pediatric patient associated with numerous epiretinal lesions throughout the macula.
Methods: A healthy 9-year-old girl presented to retina clinic with several months of blurry vision in the right eye. Clinically, there was a full-thickness macular hole with serous detachment and white epiretinal tufts.

Emotions play a crucial role in human thoughts, cognitive processes, and decision-making. EEG has become a widely utilized tool in emotion recognition due to its high temporal resolution, real-time monitoring capabilities, portability, and cost-effectiveness. In this paper, we propose a novel end-to-end emotion recognition method from EEG signals, called MSDCGTNet, which is based on the Multi-Scale Dynamic 1D CNN and the Gated Transformer.
