Superconductivity and Electric Fields: A Relativistic Extension of BCS Superconductivity

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of static electric fields on the superconducting state were studied within a relativistic extension of the BCS theory of superconductivity, and the effect of the static electric field was investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ring-like vortex solutions to the Landau-Ginzburg equations in superconducting mesoscopic devices

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe ring-like current vortices surrounding one another in concentric patterns, which in addition may possibly be bound to a standard L fluxoid configuration in their center.
Journal ArticleDOI

Analysis of the reliability of the local effect model for the use in carbon ion treatment planning systems.

TL;DR: The reliability of the last published version of LEM (LEM III) in reproducing radiobiological data has been checked under both monoenergetic and spread-out Bragg peak (SOBP) carbon-ion irradiation and a large shift between model curves and measured points was observed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reference dosimetry for light-ion beams based on graphite calorimetry

TL;DR: The determination of the absorbed dose under reference conditions was analysed and preliminary results indicate a wair-value of 35.5 ± 0.9 J C(-1), which is below recommended TRS-398 values of water-to-graphite stopping power ratio and the perturbation factor for an ionisation chamber.
Journal ArticleDOI

SU-E-T-408: Determination of KQ,Q0-Factors From Water and Graphite Calorimetry in a 60 MeV Proton Beam

TL;DR: The possibility to determine kQ,Q0-values for PPICs in SPB with a lower uncertainty than specified in the TRS-398 is suggested thereby helping to reduce uncertainty on absorbed dose-to-water.
