I en linjäraccelerator som används för strålterapi överförs konventionellt energi till elektroner som skickas i en stråle mot en metallplatta. Då elektronerna snabbt bromsas upp i plattan utsänds fotoner med hög energi i olika riktningar, men i största mån rakt framåt. Den breda fotonstråle som skapas bländas sedan in till önskade dimensioner av flyttbara blyblock i acceleratorhuvudet. Strålen är "Introduction For IMRT treatments, removing the flattening filter could be beneficial, as it would decrease the beam-on time required for delivering a certain dose. The aim of this work has been to assess the calculation accuracy obtained when implementing flattening filter free beam data into the treatment planning system Oncentra MasterPlan.

The argument is that under the new political institution, the Thai state was, on the one hand, in a relat

As observations of planetary systems are published from the Kepler mission more constraints can be put on the theory of planetary formation and evolution. This in turn can be used to more accurately tell what really has been observed, such as the frequency and orbital parameters with which a six planet system like the one around Kepler-11 will occur. Even if a system has been observed to have four

Among late-industrializing countries, the roles of states in economic development and their impacts are different. Some are developmental while some are predatory.
