Xenon Xe 129 hyperpolarized, sold under the brand name Xenoview, is a hyperpolarized contrast agent indicated for use with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for evaluation of lung ventilation, and approved for people aged twelve years of age and older. [4] [5] It was approved for medical use in the US in December 2022. [6]
Naturally occurring xenon (54 Xe) consists of seven stable isotopes and two very long-lived isotopes. Double electron capture has been observed in 124 Xe (half-life 1.8 ± 0.5(stat) ± 0.1(sys) × 10 22 years) [2] and double beta decay in 136 Xe (half-life 2.165 ± 0.016(stat) ± 0.059(sys) × 10 21 years), [7] which are among the longest measured half-lives of all nuclides.
Spontaneous fission of 238 U has generated ~5% [5] as much fissiogenic Xe as 244 Pu. Pu and U fission produce the four fissiogenic isotopes, 136 Xe, 134 Xe, 132 Xe, and 131 Xe in distinct proportions. A reservoir that remains an entirely closed system over Earth's history has a ratio of Pu- to U-derived fissiogenic Xe reaching to ~27. [6]
An electronics store in Tokyo has apologized after hundreds of Chinese buyers who flocked there to get their hands on the latest Nvidia gaming chips brought mayhem to the neighborhood.
The biosensor reader device connects with the associated electronics or signal processors that are primarily responsible for the display of the results in a user-friendly way. [5] This sometimes accounts for the most expensive part of the sensor device, however it is possible to generate a user friendly display that includes transducer and ...
Electrochemical aptamer-based (E-AB) biosensors is a device that takes advantage of the electrochemical and biological properties of aptamers to take real time, in vivo measurements. An electrochemical aptamer-based (E-AB) biosensor generates an electrochemical signal in response to specific target binding in vivo [ 3 ] The signal is measured ...
This is a list of radioactive nuclides (sometimes also called isotopes), ordered by half-life from shortest to longest, in seconds, minutes, hours, days and years. Current methods make it difficult to measure half-lives between approximately 10 −19 and 10 −10 seconds.
A 1 kW xenon short-arc lamp power supply with the cover removed. Xenon short-arc lamps have a negative temperature coefficient like other gas discharge lamps. They are operated at low-voltage, high-current, DC and started by field emission with a high voltage pulse of 20 to 50kV. As an example, a 450 W lamp operates normally at 18 V and 25 A ...
