This work represents a new flexible approach of read out in a light-addressable potentiometric sensor (LAPS) with the help of a digital light processing (DLP) set-up. The DLP, known well for video projectors, consists of a mirror-array MEMS device which allows fast and flexible generation of light patterns. With the help of these light patterns the sensor surface of the LAPS device can be read out sequentially in a raster like scheme (scanning LAPS). The DLP approach has several advantages compared to conventional scanning LAPS set-ups, e.g., the spot size, the shape and the intensity of the light pointer can be changed easily and no mechanical movement is necessary, which reduces the size of the set-up and increases the stability and speed of measurement.}, language = {en} } @article{AbouzarPedrazaSchoeningetal.2010, author = {Abouzar, Maryam H. and Pedraza, A.

In those scenarios the dedicated resources execute submitted jobs according to the request of a workflow engine or Grid wide scheduler. This approach has various limitations, particularly if human interactions should be integrated in workflow execution. To support human interactions with the benefit of enabling inter organizational computation and community approaches, this poster paper proposes the idea of a pull-based task distribution strategy. Here, heterogeneous resources, including human interaction, should actively select tasks for execution from a central repository. This leads to special demands regarding security issues like access control. In the established push-based job execution the resources are responsible for granting access to workflows and job initiators. In general this is done by access control lists, where users are explicitly mapped to local accounts according to their policies. In the pull-based approach the resources actively apply for job executions by sending requests to a central task repository. This means that every resource has to be able to authenticate against the repository to be authorized for task execution. In other words the authorization is relocated from the resources to the repository. The poster paper introduces current work regarding to the mentioned security aspects in the pull-based approach within the scope of the project "HiX4AGWS".}, language = {en} } @article{ZiemonsHeinrichsStreunetal.2004, author = {Ziemons, Karl and Heinrichs, U. and Streun, M. and Pietrzyk, Uwe}, title = {Validation of GEANT3 simulation studies with a dual-head PMT ClearPET™ prototype}, series = {2003 IEEE Nuclear Science Symposium Conference Record, Vol. 5}, journal = {2003 IEEE Nuclear Science Symposium Conference Record, Vol. 5}, issn = {1082-3654}, pages = {3053 -- 3056}, year = {2004}, abstract = {The ClearPET™ project is proposed by working groups of the Crystal Clear Collaboration (CCC) to develop a 2nd generation high performance small animal positron emission tomograph (PET).

Design optimizations for the first photomultiplier tube (PMT) based ClearPET camera are done with a Monte-Carlo simulation package implemented on GEANT3 (CERN, Geneva, Switzerland). A dual-head prototype has been built to test the frontend electronics and was used to validate the implementation of the GEANT3 simulation tool. Multiple simulations were performed following the experimental protocols to measure the intrinsic resolution and the sensitivity profile in axial and radial direction. Including a mean energy resolution of about 27.0\% the simulated intrinsic resolution is about (1.41±0.11)mm compared to the measured of (1.48±0.06)mm. The simulated sensitivity profiles show a mean square deviation of 12.6\% in axial direction and 3.6\% in radial direction. Satisfactorily these results are representative for all designs and confirm the scanner geometry.}, language = {en} } @article{KhodaverdiChatziioannouWeberetal.2005, author = {Khodaverdi, M. and Chatziioannou, A.

We will demonstrate the influence of the detector material and the X-ray spectrum on the obtained contrast. Four different detector materials (selenium, cadmium zinc telluride, cesium iodide and gadolinium oxysulfide) and two X-ray spectra (a molybdenum and a tungsten source) have been considered. The spectra have also been modified by aluminum filters of varying thickness. The contrast between different tissue types (water, air, brain, bone and fat) has been simulated by using a suitable phantom. The results indicate the possibility to improve the image contrast in microCT by an optimized combination of the X-ray source and detector material.}, language = {en} } @article{BlomeChiconeHehletal.2010, author = {Blome, Hans-Joachim and Chicone, Carmen and Hehl, Friedrich W. and Mashhoon, Bahram}, title = {Nonlocal modification of Newtonian gravity}, series = {Physical Review D}, volume = {81}, journal = {Physical Review D}, number = {6}, publisher = {American Physical Society}, address = {Melville, NY}, issn = {0556-2821}, doi = {10.1103/PhysRevD.81.065020}, year = {2010}, abstract = {The Newtonian regime of a recent nonlocal extension of general relativity is investigated.

In the framework of the CCC a high performance small animal PET system, called ClearPET, was developed by using new technologies in electronics and crystals in a phoswich arrangement combining two types of lutetium- based scintillator materials: LSO:Ce and LuYAP:Ce. Our next aim will be the development of hybrid image systems. Hybrid MR-PET imaging has many unique advantages for brain research. This has sparked a new research line within CCC for the development of novel MR-PET compatible technologies. MRI is not as sensitive as PET but PET has poorer spatial resolution than MRI. Two major advantages of PET are sensitivity and its ability to acquire metabolic information. To assess these innovations, the development of a 9.4T hybrid animal MR-PET scanner is proposed based on an existing 9.4T MR scanner that will be adapted to enable simultaneous acquisition of MR and PET data using cutting- edge technology for both MR and PET.}, language = {en} }
