The accumulation of smooth muscle and endothelial cells is essential for remodeling and
repair of injured blood vessel walls. Bone marrow–derived progenitor cells have been …

The spin of an electron is a natural two-level system for realizing a quantum bit in the solid
state 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 . For an electron trapped in a …

In human cancer, early systemic spread of tumor cells is recognized as a leading cause of
death. Adjuvant therapies are administered to patients after complete resectioning of their …

We show how the optical properties of a single semiconductor quantum dot can be controlled
with a small dc voltage applied to a gate electrode. We find that the transmission spectrum …

The fine structure of the neutral exciton in a single self-assembled InGaAs quantum dot is
investigated under the effect of an applied uniaxial stress. The spectrum of the excitonic …

The Fano effect 1 is ubiquitous in the spectroscopy of, for instance, atoms 1 , 2 , bulk solids 3
, 4 and semiconductor heterostructures 5 , 6 , 7 . It arises when quantum interference takes …

The ductus arteriosus (DA) is a fetal shunt vessel between the pulmonary artery and the
aorta that closes promptly after birth. Failure of postnatal DA closure is a major cause of …

The fine structure of the neutral exciton in a single self-assembled InGaAs quantum dot is
investigated under the effect of a lateral electric field. Stark shifts up to 1.5 meV⁠, an increase …

OBJECTIVE: With the established computed tomographic (CT)- morphologic parameters, only
the relative, but not the individual rupture risk of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA), can be …

Purpose In clinical routine somatostatin analogue positron emission tomography/computed
tomography (PET/CT) such as 68 Ga-DOTA-Tyr-octreotide (DOTATOC)-PET/CT could …
