Point cloud-based registration and image fusion between cardiac SPECT MPI and CTA
A method was proposed for the point cloud-based registration and image fusion between cardiac single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) myocardial perfusion images (MPI) and cardiac computed tomography angiograms (CTA). Firstly, the left ventricle (LV) epicardial regions (LVERs) in SPECT and CTA images were segmented by using different U-Net neural networks trained to generate the point clouds of the LV epicardial contours (LVECs). Secondly, according to the characteristics of cardiac …

Kyiv: Russia lost nearly 50,000 troops in battle for Avdiivka: https://benborges.xyz/2024/02/18/kyiv-russia-lost.html

To simplify, the Allies used signal counterintelligence, inflatable tanks, audio, and a bluff with Gen. George Patton to convince the Nazis that the 1,1000 members of the 23rd HQ Special Troops (dig that unit patch!) was actually two divisions, 30,000 men, massing to attack elsewhere.
In more than a dozen engagements in 1944-1945, they feinted, disguised and distracted from actual assaults, saving thousands of lives.

But its contributions were kept secret for half a century. On Thursday, it won Congress' top honor. #press https://www.npr.org/2024/03/21/1239871379/ghost-army-congressional-gold-medal-world-war-2?utm_medium=JSONFeed&utm_campaign=news&utm_source=press.coop

Corrected Calculation for the Non-local Solution to the g-2 Anomaly and Novel Results in Non-local QED
We provide the corrected calculation of the muon g-2 in non-local QED previously done in the literature. In specific, we show the proper technique for calculating loops in non-local QED and use it to find the form factors F1(q1) and F2(q2) in non-local QED. We also utilize this technique to calculate some novel results in non-local QED, including calculating the correction to the photon self-energy, the modification to the classical Coulomb potential, the modification to the energy levels of th…

Interference Effects in $\mathbf{gg \to H \to Z γ}$ Beyond Leading Order
The ATLAS and CMS collaborations at the LHC have recently announced evidence for the rare Higgs boson decay into a $Z$ boson and a photon. We analyze the interference between the process $gg\! \to \! H \! \to \! Z γ$ induced by loops of heavy particles, which is by far the dominant contribution to the signal, and the continuum $gg \to Z γ$ QCD background process mediated by light quark loops. This interference modifies the event yield, the resonance line-shape and the apparent mass of the Hig…
