  1. 1. lntrafractional motion effects during stereotactic body radiation therapy of lung tumors

    Author : Sebastian Sarudis; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Motion effects; Interplay; SBRT; SGRT; Lung tumors; VMAT; CA;

    Abstract : Abstract: Patient shifts and tumor motions occurring during stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) have been analyzed to determine the related effects on the delivered dose. Methods: 4-dimensional computed tomography series were retrospectively reviewed to characterize respiratory-induced lung tumor motions in 126 patients. READ MORE

  2. 2. Dosimetric effects of breathing motion in radiotherapy

    Author : Anneli Edvardsson; Lund Medicinsk strålningsfysik; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; radiotherapy; breathing motion; DIBH; interplay effects; VMAT; proton therapy; breast cancer; Hodgkin’s lymphoma; liver; dosimetry; treatment planning; medical physics;

    Abstract : The goal of radiotherapy is to deliver a homogeneous high dose of radiation to a tumour while minimising the dose to the surrounding healthy tissue. To achieve this, increasingly advanced treatment techniques, such as volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) and proton therapy, have been developed. READ MORE

  3. 3. Electronic transitions and correlation effects : From pure elements to complex materials

    Author : Johan Jönsson; Igor A. Abrikosov; Marcus Ekholm; Sergei Dudarev; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Electronic transition; solid state physics; condensed matter physics; correlation effects;

    Abstract : Macroscopic properties of real materials, such as conductivity, magneticproperties, crystal structure parameters, etc. are closely related or evendetermined by the configuration of their electrons, characterized by electronicstructure. By changing the conditions, e.g, pressure, temperature, magnetic/electric field, chemical doping, etc. READ MORE

  4. 4. Correlation Effects in Nanostructures

    Author : Paata Kakashvili; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; conformal field theory; Coulomb blockade; Wigner crystal.; Strongly correlated electrons; Kondo effect; bosonization; Luttinger liquid; STM; single-electron transistor;

    Abstract : In this Ph.D. thesis I present the background and providefurther details to the work presented in the appended papers. The background consists of brief overviews of Kondo physics, Luttinger liquid theory, and conformal field theory. READ MORE

  5. 5. Climate-associated human health effects

    Author : Tzu Tung Chen; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; malaria; Plasmodium vivax; mortality; historical epidemiology; vector-borne diseases; climate change; Nordic countries;

    Abstract : The intensifying impacts of climate change on human health represent a significant and pressing global health threat of the current century. This encompasses both short and long-term effects on human health, as well as ecosystem changes linked to rapid shifts in climate, and the subsequent spread of vector-borne diseases. READ MORE
