Design concept for improved photo-scan tube

Conceptual photo-scan tube avoids complexity of internal beam scanning and beam-current adjustment by optical scan readout. It differs from a conventional image orthicon in its use of an external oscilloscope tube

Management of preeclampsia after heart transplant

We present a 20-year-old primiparous patient status post heart transplant at 6 months with long-standing hypertension progressing to super-imposed preeclampsia. Pregnancy and delivery after thoracic transplantation is no longer a rare occurrence, however, these women are at a greater risk of gestational hypertension and preeclampsia.1 Current literature does not provide treatment guidelines for treatment of hypertensive disorders in patients with a transplanted heart. In this case report, we explore the different treatments for maintaining blood pressures in the transplanted neurovascular system, effects of eclampsia prevention on blood pressure, and how fluctuations in blood pressure in a long-standing hypertensive can affect fetal heart tracings. A literature search was conducted using terms “solid organ transplant and preeclampsia”, “Anti-hypertensive drugs post heart transplant”, and “hypertension after heart transplantation”. No reviews on treatment of preeclampsia in cardiac transplant recipients were evident

Status of the LUX Dark Matter Search

The Large Underground Xenon (LUX) dark matter search experiment is currently being deployed at the Homestake Laboratory in South Dakota. We will highlight the main elements of design which make the experiment a very strong competitor in the field of direct detection, as well as an easily scalable concept. We will also present its potential reach for supersymmetric dark matter detection, within various timeframes ranging from 1 year to 5 years or more.Comment: 4 pages, in proceedings of the SUSY09 conferenc
