Design and performance of a small bath cryostat with NMR capability for transport of hyperpolarized samples

As of today, dissolution Dynamic Nuclear Polarization (dDNP) is the only clinically available hyperpolarization technique for C-13-MRI. Despite the clear path towards personalized medicine that dDNP is paving as an alternative and/or complement to Positron ...

Magnetic Properties of Surface Adsorbed Metal Adatoms and Dimers

Dante Philippe Sblendorio

This thesis investigates the magnetic properties of single atoms and dimers adsorbed on graphene and oxide decoupling layers supported by single crystal metal substrates, using scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and spin-polarized scanning tunneling micro ...

Annotation-efficient image anomaly detection

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Seyedbehzad Bozorgtabar

The present invention proposes a method for detecting anomalous or out-of-distribution images in a machine learning system (1) comprising a pre-training network with a first encoder, and an anomaly detection network with a second encoder. The system is fir ...

Diamond-Based Nanoscale Quantum Relaxometry for Sensing Free Radical Production in Cells

Hoda Shirzad, Mayeul Sylvain Chipaux

Diamond magnetometry makes use of fluorescent defects in diamonds to convert magnetic resonance signals into fluorescence. Because optical photons can be detected much more sensitively, this technique currently holds several sensitivity world records for r ...

3-Dimensional Fluid and White Matter Suppression Magnetic Resonance Imaging Sequence Accelerated With Compressed Sensing Improves Multiple Sclerosis Cervical Spinal Cord Lesion Detection Compared With Standard 2-Dimensional Imaging

Tobias Kober

Objectives Fluid and white matter suppression (FLAWS) is a recently proposed magnetic resonance sequence derived from magnetization-prepared 2 rapid acquisition gradient-echo providing 2 coregistered datasets with white matter- and cerebrospinal fluid-supp ...

H-1 Detected Relayed Dynamic Nuclear Polarization

David Lyndon Emsley, Pierrick Berruyer, Andrea Bertarello, Moreno Lelli

Recently, it has been shown that methods based on the dynamics of 1 H nuclear hyperpolarization in magic angle spinning (MAS) NMR experiments can be used to determine mesoscale structures in complex materials. However, these methods suffer from low sensiti ...

Investigation of femtosecond laser-enabled 3D micro-infiltration processes

Enrico Casamenti

In the last decades, the femtosecond laser micromachining of glass has attracted a lot of attention due to its three-dimensional manufacturing ability and flexibility both in terms of compatible substrates and modification types. Yet, to fully unravel its ...

Crossover of high-energy spin fluctuations from collective triplons to localized magnetic excitations in Sr14-xCaxCu24O41 ladders

Henrik Moodysson Rønnow, Yi Tseng, Thorsten Schmitt

We studied the magnetic excitations in the quasi-one-dimensional (q-1D) ladder subsystem of Sr14-xCaxCu24O41 (SCCO) using Cu L-3-edge resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (RIXS). By comparing momentum-resolved RIXS spectra with high (x = 12.2) and without ( ...

Leaking Secrets Through Compressed Caches

Daniel Felipe Forero Sanchez

We offer the first security analysis of cache compression, a promising architectural technique that is likely to appear in future mainstream processors. We find that cache compression has novel security implications because the compressibility of a cache l ...

A Simple Mechanistic Model for Friction of Rough Partially Lubricated Surfaces

Jean-François Molinari, Julie Richard, Tobias Brink, Gianluca Costagliola

We report experimental measurements of friction between an aluminum alloy sliding over steel with various lubricant densities. Using the topography scans of the surfaces as input, we calculate the real contact area using the boundary element method and the ...

CTCF loss has limited effects on global genome architecture in Drosophila despite critical regulatory functions

Christian Iseli, Nicolas Jean Philippe Guex, Julien Dorier, Flavia Marzetta

Vertebrate genomes are partitioned into contact domains defined by enhanced internal contact frequency and formed by two principal mechanisms: compartmentalization of transcriptionally active and inactive domains, and stalling of chromosomal loop-extruding ...
