Search for Anomalous Production of Events with Two Photons and Additional Energetic Objects at CDF
submitted to Phys. Rev. DWe present results of a search for anomalous production of two photons together with an electron, muon, lepton, missing transverse energy, or jets using collision data from 1.1-2.0 fb of integrated luminosity collected by the Collider Detector at Fermilab (CDF). The event yields and kinematic distributions are examined for signs of new physics without favoring a specific model of new physics. The results are consistent with the standard model expectations. The search employs several new analysis techniques that significantly reduce instrumental backgrounds in channels with an electron and missing transverse energy.We present results of a search for anomalous production of two photons together with an electron, muon, τ lepton, missing transverse energy, or jets using pp̅ collision data from 1.1–2.0 fb-1 of integrated luminosity collected by the Collider Detector at Fermilab (CDF).

18F-labelling innovations and their potential for clinical application
An impressive variety of new methodologies for the preparation of 18F-labelled tracers and ligands has appeared over the last decade. Most strategies of the newly developed radiofluorination methods predominantly aim at products of high molar activity by ‘late-stage’ labelling of small (hetero)aromatic molecules and the use of transition metals. This is accompanied by the improvement of technical procedures, like preparation of reactive [18F]fluoride and automated syntheses. The newly introduced procedures reflect a high innovative level and creativity in radio(pharmaceutical) chemistry at present, which are based on modern chemical methods and deep mechanistic insights. Taking also automation and quality control into consideration, major recently developed radiofluorination methods, most of those still under development, are compiled here in view of their potential for clinical PET imaging and thus the ability to advance molecular imaging
