Disclosed herein are methods for diagnosing Alzheimer's disease in a subject that involves administering to the subject an imaging agent comprising hyperpolarized pyruvate having a nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR)-detectable nucleus; applying radiation to the brain of the subject, wherein the radiation has a frequency that excites electron spin transitions in the DNP agent at an intensity to polarize the NMR-detectable nucleus; detecting magnetic resonance signals in the brain of the subject from nuclear spin transitions in the NMR-detectable nucleus to produce a spectrum measuring bicarbonate (Bic) and lactate (Lac) metabolites; and calculating a Bic/Lac ratio from the measured metabolites, wherein a reduced Bic/Lac ratio compared to control is an indication that the subject has Alzheimer's disease.

In one aspect, the present teachings provide a system for performing cytometry that can be operated in three operational modes. In one operational mode, a fluorescence image of a sample is obtained by exciting one or more fluorophore(s) present in the sample by an excitation beam formed as a superposition of a top-hat-shaped beam with a plurality of beams that are radiofrequency shifted relative to one another. In another operational mode, a sample can be illuminated successively over a time interval by a laser beam at a plurality of excitation frequencies in a scanning fashion. The fluorescence emission from the sample can be detected and analyzed, e.g., to generate a fluorescence image of the sample. In yet another operational mode, the system can be operated to illuminate a plurality of locations of a sample concurrently by a single excitation frequency, which can be generated, e.g., by shifting the central frequency of a laser beam by a radiofrequency. For example, a horizontal extent of the sample can be illuminated by a laser beam at a single excitation frequency. The detected fluorescence radiation can be used to analyze the fluorescence content of the sample, e.g., a cell/particle.

The present disclosure, in some embodiments, relates to an image sensor integrated chip. The image sensor integrated chip includes a substrate having a first side and a second side opposing the first side. The substrate has one or more sidewalls defining a trench extending along opposing sides of a pixel region having a first width. An isolation structure including one or more dielectric materials is disposed within the trench. The isolation structure has a second width. An image sensing element and a focal region are disposed within the pixel region. The focal region is configured to receive incident radiation along the second side of the substrate. A ratio of the second width to the first width is in a range of between approximately 0.1 and approximately 0.2, so that the focal region is completely confined between interior sidewall of the isolation structure facing the image sensing element.

A system and method for detecting space debris which is based on measurements of broadband non-thermal radiation and/or light emitted by either sparks or the expansion of the plasma-fragments cloud generated during high-speed collisions of solid materials. The method is based on the concept that broadband nonthermal radiation and/or light can be used to detect the formation of new debris and for tracking debris clouds. The emission of broadband nonthermal radiation and/or light is based on theoretical and observational evidence that the collision of particles of solid materials with each other transfer enough charge to create electric fields large enough to produce small electric discharges or sparks and that the expansion of the plasma-fragments cloud generated by collisions at orbital velocities produce thermal and non-thermal electromagnetic signals.

Particle detectors, including gamma ray detectors and neutron detectors, are provided. Also provided are methods of using the detectors to detect particle radiation. The particle detectors use a layer of a particle conversion material to convert incident particles directly into primary electrons or other non-photon particles, such as alpha particles, protons, tritons, gamma rays, or fission products, without the use of a scintillator. The primary electrons and other non-photon particles generate secondary electrons in a secondary electron emission material, and these secondary electrons undergo amplification to generate a secondary electron shower that can be converted into an electronic signal by one or more anodes.
