of certain organs, such as the colon. Virtual endoscopy using spiral computed tomography allows the visualization of the colon without placing a tube into the body. Magnetic resonance imaging is based on the physics of radio frequency, atoms and magnetic fields. Felix Bloch and Edward Purcell discovered (NMR) nuclear magnetic resonance. Their scientific investigation
This energy is at a specific resonance frequency which depends on the strength of the magnetic field and the magnetic properties of the isotope of the atoms. NMR allows the observation of specific quantum mechanical magnetic properties of the atomic nucleus. Many scientific techniques exploit NMR phenomena to study molecular physics, crystals and non-crystalline materials [197]. It is also routinely used in advanced medical imaging
research training in the areas of biophysics, spectroscopy, and materials science has involved projects in three different laboratories at CUNY, focusing on cutting-edge technologies and analytical
Project organization and Management Structure: As the experimental methods are complementary to each other, but are not critically interdependent, the cooperative design of my research plans will greatly facilitate my ability to accomplish the specific aims. To monitor the progress and project quality, I will conduct meetings with Prof. Battaglia on a bi-weekly basis, write monthly reports that can be incorporated into peer-reviewed publications, and present my research outcomes at lab group meetings
Advanced Engineering Materials MECH 5623 February 14, 2017 SUPERFLUIDS Joshua Hobson Oklahoma Christian University, Graduate School of Engineering Edmond, OK ABSTRACT “Superfluids” are fluids that have zero viscosity. This means that the fluid will flow with zero friction as well as leak through certain surfaces that are otherwise considered sealed. In addition, superfluids are also superconductors. The paper discusses liquid helium, its discovery, properties applications and limitations. INTRODUCTION
master of Science in physics at Sardar patel University. Bearing in mind my academic background, capabilities and interests, I had decided to pursue graduate studies in physics with my focus on CONDENSED MATTER PHYSICS AND MATERIAL SCIENCE. In what follows, I have briefly summed up my motivation for the graduate study, my back ground and my research interest. Right from the onset of my academic years, fascination for the physics and mathematics had promoted me to do a major in physics. I started my education
My interest in healthcare began in my senior year in high school. Before this revelation, I had vision problems, noticed by difficulty viewing the classroom board, and soon after was prescribed corrected lenses. I continued to have visual difficulties and sought assistants from various professionals. I later learned my deteriorated vision was due to Karatoconus (KC) – a disorder of the cornea that results in visual distortion. My ophthalmologist advised me that my condition would worsen until I eventually
Statement of Purpose My interest in healthcare began in my senior year in high school. Before this revelation, I had vision problems and was prescribed corrected lenses. I continued to have visual difficulties and sought assistants from various professionals. I later learned my deteriorated vision was due to Karatoconus (KC) – a disorder of the cornea that results in visual distortion. My ophthalmologist advised me that my condition would worsen until I eventually become blind. Because of the late
Chromatography – Separation of a material due to its interaction with two different phases. Spectroscopy – Interaction of an analyte with electromagnetic radiation. 19 Different methods provide a range of precision, sensitivity, selectivity and speed capabilities. Method Approx.

tunable properties is central to the evolution of nanoscale science and technology. Nanometre scale metal particles exhibit optical, electronic, magnetic and chemical properties which have wonderful technological and scholar value. Among them silver, copper, and gold nanoparticles (NP) offer powerful adsorption bands (Localised Surface Plasmon Resonance, LSPR) in the visual spectrum. The frequency of the LSPR is mightily dependent on various properties of the NP. The optical properties of metal NP
