Photon Counting Detectors for X-ray Imaging

Photon Counting Detectors for X-ray Imaging PDF Author: Hiroaki Hayashi
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3030626806
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 119

Book Description
This book first provides readers with an introduction to the underlying physics and state-of-the-art application of photon counting detectors for X-ray imaging. The authors explain that a photon-counting imaging detector can realize quantitative analysis because the detector can derive X-ray attenuation information based on the analysis of intensity changes of individual X-ray. To realize this analysis, it is important to consider the physics of an object and detector material. In this book, the authors introduce a novel analytical procedure to create quantitative X-ray images for medical diagnosis.

Topology in Condensed Matter

Topology in Condensed Matter PDF Author: Michael I. Monastyrsky
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 3540312641
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 263

Book Description
This book reports new results in condensed matter physics for which topological methods and ideas are important. It considers, on the one hand, recently discovered systems such as carbon nanocrystals and, on the other hand, new topological methods used to describe more traditional systems such as the Fermi surfaces of normal metals, liquid crystals and quasicrystals. The authors of the book are renowned specialists in their fields and present the results of ongoing research, some of it obtained only very recently and not yet published in monograph form.

X-ray Polarimetry

X-ray Polarimetry PDF Author: Ronaldo Bellazzini
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 9780521191845
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 384

Book Description
Due to the advent of a new generation of detectors, X-ray polarimetry promises to join X-ray imaging, spectroscopy and timing as one of the main observational techniques in high energy astrophysics. This has renewed interest in the field, and indeed several polarimetric missions have recently been proposed. This volume provides a complete and up-to-date view of the subject for researchers in astrophysics. The contributors discuss the present status and perspectives of instruments, review current theoretical models, and examine future missions. As well as detailed papers, the book contains broad reviews that can be easily understood by astrophysicists new to the field.

Quantum Phase Transitions

Quantum Phase Transitions PDF Author: Subir Sachdev
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 113950021X
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 521

Book Description
Describing the physical properties of quantum materials near critical points with long-range many-body quantum entanglement, this book introduces readers to the basic theory of quantum phases, their phase transitions and their observable properties. This second edition begins with a new section suitable for an introductory course on quantum phase transitions, assuming no prior knowledge of quantum field theory. It also contains several new chapters to cover important recent advances, such as the Fermi gas near unitarity, Dirac fermions, Fermi liquids and their phase transitions, quantum magnetism, and solvable models obtained from string theory. After introducing the basic theory, it moves on to a detailed description of the canonical quantum-critical phase diagram at non-zero temperatures. Finally, a variety of more complex models are explored. This book is ideal for graduate students and researchers in condensed matter physics and particle and string theory.

Hybrid Quantum Systems

Hybrid Quantum Systems PDF Author: Yoshiro Hirayama
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 9811666792
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 352

Book Description
This book presents state-of-the-art research on quantum hybridization, manipulation, and measurement in the context of hybrid quantum systems. It covers a broad range of experimental and theoretical topics relevant to quantum hybridization, manipulation, and measurement technologies, including a magnetic field sensor based on spin qubits in diamond NV centers, coherently coupled superconductor qubits, novel coherent couplings between electron and nuclear spin, photons and phonons, and coherent coupling of atoms and photons. Each topic is concisely described by an expert at the forefront of the field, helping readers quickly catch up on the latest advances in fundamental sciences and technologies of hybrid quantum systems, while also providing an essential overview.

Broken Symmetries
