Gold Nanoparticle Size, Biodistribution, and Toxicity: Insights from DualEnergy CT
Abstract: Dual-energy and spectral computed tomography (CT) have emerged as powerful platforms for noninvasive, quantitative mapping of nanoparticle biodistribution in vivo. By exploiting the energy-dependent attenuation profiles of high-atomic-number (high-Z) materials, these systems enable material decomposition and element-specific imaging, thereby distinguishing nanoparticle signals from those of soft tissues and conventional iodinated contrast agents. Photon-counting spectral CT further enhances this capability by binning individual photons into multiple energy channels, improving spatial resolution, …

Recent Development to Track Contraband using Muon
Abstract: The muon is one of nature’s fundamental particles discovered in 1937 by Carl Anderson. A muon is an elementary subatomic particle similar to electron, but with a mass approximately 207 times greater and, sometimes it is called as a “heavy electron”. Muons are generated naturally when cosmic rays collide with atoms in earth’s upper atmosphere and, then raining down all the times upon the surface of earth. Muons can be …

An Overview on VLSI based Hardware Security in IoT Node
Abstract: In the coming era, security will not be a feature we add to an IoT device; it will be a property inherent to its transistor-level design. By encoding security into the VLSI architecture, we move away from the fragile "software-only" paradigm and toward a future where the identity of the device is as immutable as the laws of physics. The rapid proliferation of Internet of Things (IoT) devices has transformed …
