Phase-shift nanoemulsions (PSNE) can be vaporized using high intensity focused ultrasound to enhance localized heating and improve thermal ablation in tumors. In this report, the preparation of stable PSNE with a narrow size distribution is described. Furthermore, the impact of vaporized PSNE on ultrasound-mediated ablation is demonstrated in tissue-mimicking phantoms.

Source: Arianna Brown, Asantha Cooray, PhD, Department of Physics & Astronomy, School of Physical Sciences, University of California, Irvine, CA Waves are disturbances that propagate through a material medium or empty space. Light waves can travel through a vacuum and some forms of matter, and are transverse in nature, which means that the oscillations are perpendicular to the direction of propagation. However, sound waves are pressure waves that travel through an elastic medium like air,...

Set-shifting, a form of behavioral flexibility, requires an attentional shift from one stimulus dimension to another. We extended an established rodent set-shifting task1 by requiring attention to different stimuli according to context. The task was combined with specific lesions to identify neuron subtypes underlying a successful shift.
FAQs
For a fixed time delay, increasing frequency produces a larger phase angle shift because more of the cycle elapses during that delay. The same delay therefore corresponds to different angular offsets at different frequencies. This frequency dependence is important when comparing signals or interpreting measurements across operating conditions.
In alternating-current circuits, inductors and capacitors do more than affect signal size: their energy-storage behavior changes the timing relationship between voltage and current. That relative offset is represented by a phase angle, allowing circuit analysis to distinguish storage-related behavior from a response without that storage-based shift. The result helps characterize impedance under AC conditions.
Phase comparisons provide information that amplitude measurements alone do not: they show how two periodic signals align in time. In interference experiments, the relative angle helps identify whether wave features reinforce or oppose one another. In resonance studies, monitoring phase as conditions change helps characterize the system’s response.
To measure a phase angle shift, compare corresponding features of two periodic signals, such as matching peaks, troughs, or zero crossings. Determine the time offset between those features and relate it to the signal period, then report the result in degrees or radians. Repeating the comparison at different frequencies reveals frequency-dependent behavior.
In circuit analysis, the voltage-current phase relationship helps identify how energy-storage elements influence an alternating-current response. Examining the angle alongside the signals provides information about impedance, rather than relying only on signal magnitude. This makes phase measurements useful for characterizing circuit behavior under changing electrical conditions.
The measurement supports investigations of wave interference, resonance, impedance, and signal propagation. Consequently, it appears in circuit analysis as well as studies involving acoustics, optics, communications, and dynamic systems. In each setting, comparing relative timing gives researchers a way to characterize how a system or signal responds.
A changing relative phase can indicate that signals do not reach corresponding points or conditions at the same time. Measuring that offset helps characterize propagation and the behavior of dynamic systems, especially when frequency varies. Expressing the result as an angle provides a consistent way to compare periodic responses across experimental conditions.
