Especially, the effects of oxygen vacancy and interstitial are considered. Thermal conductivity of UO<sub>2</sub>, UO<sub>2+0.25</sub> and UO<sub>2-0.25</sub> is calculated by solving the phonon Boltzmann equation (BTE) under the relaxation time approximation (RTA). The results show that introducing any defects to the lattice structure of UO2 decreases thermal conductivity significantly. In addition, the results show that the variation of the thermal conductivity of UO<sub>2-0.25</sub> is much lower than that of UO<sub>2+0.25 </sub>in the temperature interval of 300 to 1000 Kelvin.In this study, the effect of point defects on the thermal conductivity of UO<sub>2</sub> is investigated.

In this study, ADK is calculated in a homogeneous water phantom in the polar coordinates by using the Monte Carlo Geant4 toolkit for monoenergetic photons with energies in the range 0.3MeV-5MeV. To study accurately, ADK is divided into several groups in order of produced charged particle set in motion at each photon interaction. Our result shows ADK rapidly decreases as the polar angle, with respect to the incident photon direction, is increased. As the radial distance from the interaction point increases, ADK is raised and then strongly decreased.

In this research, a 1D non-Markovian random walk is considered. In this process, the reset changes the dynamics in a way where the random walker, after losing its memory, goes back to a fixed point in space and starts again. In this study we investigate time evolution and also the long-time limit of displacement moments in the presence of resetting. Our calculations in the long-time limit show that the probability distribution function for displacement reaches a steady-state. On the other hand, this distribution never gets to a Gaussian form for any values of the resetting rate. We will show that, in contrast to the case where the process does not undergo resetting, the moments accumulate to finite values.

One of those methods is the vaporizing material method with the help of an electron gun. The most important part in the electron gun is the electron optic, which is responsible for producing and accelerating electrons, so that it becomes possible to vaporize refractory materials in a shorter period of time by better modifying and controlling the electron beam (the shape and diameter of the electron beam) at the target location. The reduction and control of the beam diameter in this evaporation source depends on various parameters such as device geometry, magnetic field intensity, electric power, etc. Therefore, in this research, the effect of those parameters was investigated by conducting experiments and using finite element and modeling software. The simulation results revealed that the effect of the effective parameters on the beam diameter can be predicted to a good extent, so that the diameter of the electron beam decreases by changing the geometrical shape, size and displacement of the output beam components. Then, the new electron gun, compared to the existing prototype, is optimized by applying these changes in the construction of the device and conducting experiments, and its beam diameter is reduced by 40% to be more focused.Nowadays, by expanding the application of thin layers in industry and medical sciences, their fabrication methods have also received attention.

Therefore, in this paper, the treatment of brain cancer with non-invasive photothermal therapy is investigated and the effect of various treatment factors including laser power full width at half maximum (FWHM) of the laser beam profile on the success of the treatment is evaluated. The simulations are performed by solving the three-dimensional Pennes bioheat transfer equation, Beer–Lambert law, and by considering the presence of gold nanorods, the Gaussian laser profile, as well as the initial and boundary conditions with the finite element method (FEM). The results of the investigations demonstrate that the laser power and radius of the laser spot are two important quantities in the success of the treatment. These two quantities affect the dose of thermal energy received by the cancerous tissue and control the temperature and fraction of tumour and tissue damage in different positions. Also, smaller and larger radii of laser spot than 1.1R (R is the radius of the brain tumour) lead to more and less temperature differences, respectively, in different parts of the tumour. However, the highest temperature and temperature rate can be obtained at the upper center point of the cancerous tissue in all treatment conditions. In addition, increasing the laser power from 0.5 to 1 W causes an increase in the temperature in different points of the tumour and irreversible destruction continues even after turning off the laser due to the tumor temperature in a different position beeing higher than 42 °C, as well as heat transfer due to conduction and convection.Brain cancer has the lowest survival percentage among different cancers and it has caused the death of people under 40 more than others.

The scale symmetry plays a crucial role here. In the classical limit, all the scalars are massless. Only one of the singlet scalars and the Higgs doublet acquire non-zero expectation value. After diagonalization of the mass matrix, we have a massless singlet scalar, the so-called scalon, and two massive scalars. From quantum corrections, the scalon gets mass. Besides theoretical constraints on the parameters of the model, we impose bounds on the triple Higgs interactions provided by ATLAS and CMS detectors at the LHC.In this research we introduce a model by adding two singlet scalars to the Higgs potential of the Standard Model and imposing scale symmetry to address the hierarchy problem.

Research Center for Laser and Plasma, Shahid Chamran University of Ahvaz, Ahvaz- IranJournal Article20230408In spite of the incredible evolutions of advanced material characterization methods, this field of research faces different technical and scientific challenges. Thermal lens spectroscopy is known as a sensitive and nondestructive optical based technique to characterize the opto-thermal properties of materials and also to<strong> </strong>diagnose the impurities in the solutions. In this research, by engaging thermal lens spectroscopy, we investigate the thermal diffusivity coefficient of ultrathin silver layers, prepared by magnetron sputtering. For this propose, the Shen theoretical model is fitted to the obtained empirical signal and subsequently, the thermal diffusivity coefficient will be extracted. The results clearly show that, in the investigated interval thickness (<15nm), the thermal diffusivity coefficient increases by increasing the thickness. Furthermore, our findings reveal that in the very fine thickness region, the thermal diffusivity coefficient shows a fair dependence on the thickness of the silver layers. This might be explained by 2D behavior of the thermal diffusivity for ultrathin metal nanolayers.In spite of the incredible evolutions of advanced material characterization methods, this field of research faces different technical and scientific challenges.
