Laser spectroscopy measurement of isotope shifts and nuclear moments of short-lived neon isotopes
2003
Within the scope of a laser spectroscopy study of nuclear structure in the sd shell we are measuring nuclear moments and isotope shifts of neon isotopes. An ultra-sensitive variant of collinear laser spectroscopy [1, 2] is applied to a neutralized fast beam from ISOLDE (CERN). The non-optical detection is based on optical pumping, state selective collisional ionization and β-activity counting. This method gives access in particular to the short-lived isotopes in the extended chain of 17–26,28Ne.
The use of morphokinetics as a predictor of embryo implantation.
2011
Background Time-lapse observation presents an opportunity for optimizing embryo selection based on morphological grading as well as providing novel kinetic parameters, which may further improve accurate selection of viable embryos. The objective of this retrospective study was to identify the morphokinetic parameters specific to embryos that were capable of implanting. In order to compare a large number of embryos, with minimal variation in culture conditions, we have used an automatic embryo monitoring system. Methods Using a tri-gas IVF incubator with a built-in camera designed to automatically acquire images at defined time points, we have simultaneously monitored up to 72 individual emb…
