Magnetotransport study of the charged stripes in high-T_c cuprates
We present a study of the in-plane and out-of-plane magnetoresistance (MR) in
heavily-underdoped, antiferromagnetic YBa_{2}Cu_{3}O_{6+x}, which reveals a
variety of striking features. The in-plane MR demonstrates a "d-wave"-like
anisotropy upon rotating the magnetic field H within the ab plane. With
decreasing temperature below 20-25 K, the system acquires memory: exposing a
crystal to the magnetic field results in a persistent in-plane resistivity
anisotropy. The overall features can be explained by assuming that the CuO_2
planes contain a developed array of stripes accommodating the doped holes, and
that the MR is associated with the field-induced topological ordering of the
stripes.Comment: 4 pages, 5 figures, invited paper at M2S-HTSC-VI, to be published in

PRIMARY OVARIAN MYXOMA
Primary ovarian myxoma is exceedingly rare, with only five cases known to be reported. We present an 18-year-old female with an ovarian myxoma
Electrical Resistivity Anisotropy from Self-Organized One-Dimensionality in High-Temperature Superconductors
We investigate the manifestation of the stripes in the in-plane resistivity
anisotropy in untwinned single crystals of La_{2-x}Sr_{x}CuO_{4} (x = 0.02 -
0.04) and YBa_{2}Cu_{3}O_{y} (y = 6.35 - 7.0). It is found that both systems
show strongly temperature-dependent in-plane anisotropy in the lightly
hole-doped region and that the anisotropy in YBa_{2}Cu_{3}O_{y} grows with
decreasing y below about 6.60 despite the decreasing orthorhombicity, which
gives most direct evidence that electrons self-organize into a macroscopically
anisotropic state. The transport is found to be easier along the direction of
the spin stripes already reported, demonstrating that the stripes are
intrinsically conducting in cuprates.Comment: 5 pages, 4 figures (including one color figure), final version

Status and Future Plan of Heavy-Ion Cancer Radiotherapy Facility HIMAC
The first clinical trial with a carbon-ion beam generated from HIMAC was conducted in June 1994. The total number of patients treated was about 6,500 as of August 2012. The impressive advance of carbon-ion therapy using HIMAC has been supported by high-reliability operation and by the developments of accelerator and beam-delivery technologies. Based on more than ten years of experience with HIMAC, we carried out design studies and R&D works toward a standard carbon-ion radiotherapy facility downsized from the HIMAC. As a result, collaborating NIRS with Gunma University, a pilot facility was constructed at Gunma University, and the treatments have carried out successfully since March 2010. On the other hand, NIRS proposed a new treatment research facility for the further development of radiotherapy with HIMAC, based on the pencil-beam 3D scanning. On the basis of the design study and the related R&D work, the new treatment research facility was constructed, as an extension of the existing one. The treatments have been successfully carried out with a pencil-beam 3D scanning since May 2011. As a future plan, we have developed a superconducting rotating gantry, and we are going to just start a study of a superconducting accelerator for the ion radiotherapy. The status and future plan of the heavy-ion cancer radiotherapy HIMAC is reported
New Heavy-Ion Cancer Treatment Facility at HIMAC
The first clinical trial of cancer treatment with carbon beams generated from the HIMAC was conducted in June 1994. Based on more than ten years of experience with HIMAC, we have proposed a new treatment facility for the purpose of further development of the therapy with HIMAC. This facility, which will be connected with the HIMAC synchrotron, will consist of three treatment rooms: two rooms equippedwith horizontal and vertical beam-delivery systems and one room with a rotating gantry. In both the fixed beam delivery and rotating gantry systems, a 3D beam-scanning method will be employed with gated irradiation with patients respiration in order to increase the treatment accuracy.EPAC08(第11回欧州粒子線加速器会議
