Results show that the ETTR-2 is capable of producing Co-60 with a specific activity of 83.89 Ci g −1 in 263 ± 14 days following the placement of eight Co-59 pencils with 0.77 cm diameter, 32 cm in height, and 74.506 g each. ![]() Reactor geometry and calculations were carried out using OpenMC Monte Carlo code to obtain the effective multiplication factor K eff, the flux distribution, and the production yield of Co-60 with respect to time. IAEA reference for Co-60 specifications was used to set the comparison criteria for generating different configurations. This simulation study compares the production yield of Co-60 for different Co-59 pencil configurations within the irradiation box inside the in-core neutron flux trap. The ETRR-2 research reactor is designed with an in-core neutron flux trap that accommodates space for placement of an irradiation box, which makes it suitable for the production of radioisotopes as an in-core fixed facility. It may be produced in research reactors from the stable isotope cobalt-59 by neutron activation when a fission neutron is absorbed in the Co-59 nucleus. or death.Cobalt-60 is an artificial radioisotope with a wide range of applications in many industries for its high intensity gamma-rays and longer half-life. Mishandling of a large industrial source of Co-60 could result in an external exposure large enough to cause skin burns, acute radiation sickness radiation sicknessA serious illness that can happen when a person is exposed to very high levels of radiation, usually over a short period of time. Cobalt-60 absorbed by the liver, kidneys, or bone tissue can cause cancer from internal exposure to gamma radiation. Most Co-60 that is ingested is excreted in feces however, a small amount is absorbed by the liver, kidneys and bones. Cobalt and Healthīecause it decays by gamma radiation, external exposure to Co-60 can increase cancer risk. Such exposures are carefully controlled to avoid adverse health impacts and to maximize the benefits of medical care. Most exposure to Co-60 takes place intentionally during medical tests and treatments. The global Cobalt-60 market was valued at USD 254 million in 2020 and it is expected to reach USD 366.5 million by the end of 2027, growing at a CAGR of 5.3 during 2021-2027. Though relatively rare, exposure has also occurred by accidental mishandling of a source at a metal recycling facility or steel mill. ![]() Accidental exposures may occur as the result of loss or improper disposal of medical and industrial radiation sources. As much as 30 per cent of Congos cobalt comes from so-called artisanal mines.(Foreign Correspondent: Michael Davie)But the violent rush to extract cobalt is unleashing a new cycle of misery and. It is also used for radiation therapy in hospitals. Cobalt-60 is used as a radiation source in many common industrial applications, such as in leveling devices and thickness gauges.

It receives signals through the air because metal conducts electricity and broadcast signals are really weak electrical signals. Why it will always “kinda” workĪn antenna isn’t really that complex of a thing. But, just because you can connect things up doesn’t really mean it will work. Homeowners are comfortable with that connection system and they trust it. Most home cell boosters use the same F-connector and RG6 cable as television antennas. In most cases you can connect any antenna to a cell booster. You want to “beef it up.” Can you connect an old TV antenna and will it do the job? Yes… and no. Let’s say you got a new cell booster and it came with a small antenna. OK, I’ll admit I probably have more old equipment in the garage than most people. If you’re like me, you probably have a bunch of old equipment in the garage.

Theses are features I want in a camera app: If you're passionate about taking your photography to the next level but aren't sure where to dive in, check out the Well-Rounded Photographer tutorial where you can learn eight different genres of photography in one place. If you purchase it now, or any of our other tutorials, you can save a 15% by using " ARTICLE" at checkout. Shutter is worthy of your consideration for what it is now and what's coming. It's not perfect yet, but I like where it is going, and updates have been frequent and worthwhile. I like the app and the work the developer has put in. Shutter is $16.99 in the Apple app store, and the developer offers a refund after seven days if you are not satisfied. It offers a screen display and remote triggering, as well as exposure control and self-timer settings. The app also includes an Apple Watch app that I haven't tested. If you're interested in the app, the developer has provided a list of compatible cameras and what functionality you'll get, depending on what features Sony opens to third-party apps. Summing Upĭespite some teething glitches, I think Sony camera owners will want this app if they are on iOS. It's not for sports photographers, though, when zero lag is what you need. For landscape and astrophotography, I can work with that. There's a second or so of lag between the camera screen and your iPhone screen. I've seen similar complaints with Sony's Imaging Edge app, which again, is not as fully featured as Shutter. That could be the app or the way Sony offers third-party connections. The Shutter app does a lot more, doesn't tie me physically to the camera, shows me what the camera sees, and provides a host of bracket options and interval timers for astrophotography or time-lapse imaging. ![]() It's better than the old IR remotes, but only slightly. It can autofocus lenses and trigger the shutter, but that's about it. I have a Sony BT remote (the Sony Wireless Remote Commander). Shutter is easy to understand and gives me a whole lot of features no wired or wireless remote I've seen offers. I thought that might be because I was a reviewer of the app, but regular users report the same thing. Speaking of the developer, he seems to respond quickly to any issue, day or night. Happily, after I reported the bug, the developer fixed it one day later. On the other hand, it was a cosmetic issue, because my camera functioned fine and my images were saved to the camera and my iPhone. The developer acknowledged the bug and will quickly fix it. I have my SD card in slot two of my Sony, but the app reported no SD card. Re-running the app connected instantly. There are a few little onscreen bugs. On my Sony A7 IV, I could easily connect, but a few times, the app (or the camera) dropped the connection. You tell the app what Sony model you have, and it gives you a step-by-step connection process. Connecting your phone to the camera is pretty easy. Shutter can also control video on many Sony cameras, but I think the app is best used by still photographers. The app also works with tap to focus on my a7 IV, where you tap the iPhone screen to get the focus where you want it. With the recent Eye-AF update for third-generation Sony cameras, Shutter can always focus on the eyes. Shutter supports both burst mode and bulb mode on most Sony cameras. You can set up the app to take, say, 50 15-second exposures, then use the software of your choice to align them, all without touching the camera. This is also very useful for astrophotography, especially doing the Milky Way. You can capture raw photos and use your regular raw editor and video editor to put together time-lapse movies. With the help of that included intervalometer, you can get rid of a dedicated cable release. An included on-screen histogram ensures you don't clip highlights or lose shadow details. ![]() Testing on my camera, I can specify an initial delay and intervals between photos (an Intervalometer), as well as remotely control exposure settings. Later in this article, I'll get into detail on compatible cameras. ![]() ![]() I've been using it with the new Sony a7 IV, and it's full-featured. it doesn't work the same on all Sony cameras, because not all Sony cameras have the same capabilities. I've just had an extensive test of Shutter, an iOS app for Sony cameras that offers a lot of control at a pretty low price. In the old days, we had cable releases for some of these functions, and as cameras progressed, we were offered more sophisticated devices, wired and unwired, to give us some basic control of our cameras. Triggering your camera without touching it and causing vibration is another obvious thing photographers want. So make sure to praise her when she does well. All dogs respond best to positive reinforcement. It might have a prey drive and be disposed to running for and chasing small prey, but if handled properly this can be managed. The best thing you can do is break the sessions into shorter daily sessions to keep their attention span higher. They are going to want to take the alpha position and need someone with a firm, strong, hand that can let them know their place. This is an intelligent dog that will be a little bit challenging to train. Never tie your dog up outside - that is inhumane and not fair to him. This exercise will keep them from being destructive. This mix will more than likely have a high energy level. Plan on taking them for extremely long walks and hikes to keep their energy level down. Either way, Get ready to invest in a good vacuum if you want to keep your floors clean! Give them baths as needed, but not so much that you dry out their skin. Perro de Presa Canario Staffordshire Bull Terrier Mix CareĮven if you know the breed, sometimes it is hard to tell if it will be a heavy shedder or a light shedder. They are a tough, strong, and muscular dog. Due to this classification they are sometimes outlawed in certain municipalities, etc. ![]() They are often times classified as a pit bull type of dog. They were officially recognized by the American Kennel Club in 1974. They can be mapped back to the Terriers of Ireland via DNA testing. ![]() Given its name it is not hard to see that it comes from Staffordshire England, which is in the northern part of Birmingham. With the passage of the Cruelty to Animals Act in 1835, this stopped that activity and slowed the breeding of the Staffy. This dog was originally bred to fight bulls for blood sport. The Staffordshire Bull Terrier - Staffy for short is a short-haired British breed. With time and in isolation it has become breed in its own right. It is assumed that it was introduced into the Islands by the Conquistadors and Spanish Colonialists. This is an old breed that dates back as far as the 16th century, the Presa Canario has been mentioned in documents of the Canary Islands. The name of the breed is Spanish, means "Canarian catch dog.” The breed is sometimes also called Dogo Canario, meaning "Canarian Molosser.” As you might start to notice, virtually all dogs were bred to work livestock or hunt originally. Other names it goes by are the Canary Mastiff, Canary Catch Dog, Canarian Dogo, and Dogo Canario. The Perro de Presa Canario is a large Molosser-type dog breed originally bred for working livestock. If you have a few minutes, please sign our petition to stop puppy mills. These are places that mass produce puppies, specifically for profit and don’t care at all about the dogs. If you are looking at breeders for new, designer dogs please beware of Puppy Mills. We will take a closer look at the history of both parent breeds below. Breeding specific dogs like this has become common in the last twenty years or so even though I am sure that this mixed breed found it’s share of dogs to the shelter due to accidental breeding.

Rules Look out for this new Soviet flying boat in War Thunder’s Update 1. Pilots must take this limiting factor into consideration when piloting the Be-6, otherwise they run the risk of easily falling prey to enemy fighters and ground fire.Īll in all, the Be-6 should be a welcome addition to the medium ranks of the Soviet aviation tree, especially to those players who enjoy taking these very unique aircraft into battle. Another serious problem the Be-6 is confronted with is its lackluster speed, which tops out at 415 km/h (258 mph). For instance, whilst possessing formidable defensive capabilities that is sure to make seasoned pilots think twice before attacking, the aircraft also has a number of blind spots, which enemy fighters can easily exploit to their advantage to approach the Be-6 without taking fire. However, just like all aircraft, the Be-6 too comes with its own set of flaws and shortcomings. The aircraft will have a sizable maximum payload of around 4 tons, consisting of either bombs or two torpedoes, allowing the aircraft to feel right at home regardless of what the mission target for the day is.ĭownload the Wallpaper: 1280x1024 | 1920x1080 | 2560x1440 The Be-6 will give pilots a solid “gunship” platform on the one hand, whilst providing excellent support for both tankers and sailors on the other. This gorgeous flying boat will be available as a Premium vehicle in our online store, with a pack of Golden Eagles and days of Premium account. In War Thunder, the Be-6 will strive to fill the gap in the hangars (and hearts) of pilots who eagerly waited for such an addition to the Soviet aviation tree. A total of around 120 Be-6s were produced between 1949 - 1957. The Chinese changed, among other things, the powerplant of the Be-6 to the WJ-6 turboprop and redesignated the Be-6 to the Qing-6. The Be-6 remained in active military service with the Soviet Union until the late 1960’s, and up to the 1990’s with the Chinese Naval Air Force, thanks to modernization efforts. The Chinese also received a number of Be-6s for their naval air force. However, the Be-6 didn’t only serve with the Soviet Union. The aircraft enjoyed a long service life thanks to the fact that significant changes within the Soviet navy, at least when float planes were concerned, were few and far between during the Cold War. ![]() This improved variant had its maiden flight in 1951, with serial production following shortly after.Īfter its introduction to service in 1951, the Be-6 was tasked with performing various roles fitted for a maritime aircraft, such as reconnaissance, sub-hunting, patrolling, transportation and mine-laying. Thus, Beriev engineers equipped the following model, that would become the production version, with more powerful Shvetsov ASh-73 engines and changed the defensive armaments layout from six 12.7mm UBT machine guns to 23mm NR-23 cannons, followed by the reduction in turret count from 5 to 3. ![]() Evaluation of the first prototype showed that the aircraft could be improved in some areas to achieve better performance. The first prototype of the Be-6 flew in 1945, only a couple years after the initial plans for the new Soviet flying boat were laid down in 1943. Siri needs more voice-only capabilities and is too tied to screens today. As a voice assistant, Siri struggles because it lacks functionality breadth, not navigation control depth. I make this clarification to emphasize that Voice Control doesn’t suggest any improvements in Siri. Think of voice control as a tool you can use while a voice assistant is a virtual person with a tool that does things for you. The man employs voice to navigate a user experience originally designed for visual interaction. Think of this as voice assistive technology as opposed to a voice assistant technology. This is More Voice Assistive than Assistant Watching the video, you may also see ways these capabilities can offer benefit well beyond accessibility features in the future. If this feature goes no further, it will have been a worthwhile investment by Apple. So, Voice Control provides a clearly superior benefit than other screen navigation techniques for users that cannot manually manage a point and click or touch interface. The user in the video demonstration is either a quadriplegic or has limited use of his arms. For objects with formal names such as a send button, the user can select the number or say the name of the object or button. That enables the user to select a number to choose an object when it would be otherwise hard to describe what to click. The AI identifies all clickable or touchable objects on the screen and assigns them a number. What is striking is the user interface that enables navigation. It enables users of Macs and iPhones to navigate screens using only their voice. Text and data is available under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License.Voice Control is a new accessibility feature in MacOS and iOS that was demonstrated in the last quarter of the World Wide Developer Conference keynotes earlier today. This is a community-driven and open source project. This work was originally created by Michael Fairchild. If there are multiple choices with the same text, they will be labeled by numbers. Use the version number listed on the dialog.OR click the apple icon in the top left corner of the desktop and select "about this mac".Voice Control is built in to MacOS and you can enable it from System Preferences. For example, a user can zoom in on grid a grid number until it is large enough to cover an incorrectly coded icon button without a name or role, then pan the screen so that the number is over the button, and then say "tap " to activate the button.ĭifferences between voice control softwareīecause Voice Control only supports names and not roles, all expectations for roles are marked as "not applicable". ![]() "show grid" will turn on an overlay that displays a numbered grid over the screen that allows the user to interact with parts of the screen that don't have names or numbers.This is helpful when an element is missing a name, or if the user does not know how to pronounce a name. "show numbers" will turn on an overlay that displays a number for every element on the page. ![]() There are 2 types of overlays that you can turn on.

SaaS (software as a service) is a software licensing model where it is accessed online, is cloud-based and centrally hosted. The subscription-based software model falls into this category. OpEx (operating expenses) represent the day-to-day operations of a company. The user should be capable to ensure a sufficient level of security to protect data against cyber threats.Might require additional expenses (e.g.Software implementation might be tricky and time-consuming.Software will become obsolete and vulnerable to security risks within few years if not updated. ![]() Software is hosted on the customer’s servers, which gives more control of IT infrastructure but imposes the cost of maintaining it.Software can be used indefinitely (although most require one license per user).May cost less over a long time (over 5 years typically).The perceptual license pros and cons are the following: Thus, customer support, maintenance, software upgrades are either not included at all in the price or are included for a limited time period. Furthermore, it triggers additional, sometimes hidden, costs. The upfront cost of a perpetual license requires a heavy investment, which can represent a financial risk for the organization. A perpetual license allows the holder to pay once and use the specific version of the program indefinitely. Imaging software acquired on a perpetual license basis lends itself to capital expenditures. Here is an overview of two licensing models: CapEx (perpetual license) vs OpEx (SaaS).ĬapEx (capital expenditures) are long-term expenses used for purchases of physical assets, e.g. Choosing the right payment model can make a big difference. However, this may incur excessive costs, if not managed judiciously. Implementing medical imaging Artificial Intelligence (AI) is an efficient way to boost the competitiveness of your practice, improve the work environment and ensure better patient care. ![]() You can get the standalone app for $70 / £60 / AU$110. There are no endless subscription fees - just a one-off purchase that offers pretty good value for money. Securing its position as one of the best Photoshop alternatives is the price. In our review, we noted that “the list of tools is incredibly long, and rivals bigger, more expensive competitors, yes, even Photoshop itself.” The only danger here, then, is that you may be overwhelmed by everything on offer. There’s also no shortage of useful tools, including PSD file support, RAW Support, masking, layering, retouching, removing blemishes, curving, and a full set of 16-bit filters. You’ll find an impressively clean interface (although the Ui can be occasionally glitchy). There’s also an iPad version for mobile image editing. In our experience, GIMP was slightly less responsive and used a few more resources than its proprietary counterpart, but this can be easily forgiven on the basis that GIMP always has been and always will be free and open source.Īffinity Photo, from Serif, is positively packed with professional tools that make it a genuine rival to Photoshop for both Windows and macOS. For this reason, GIMP has a similarly steep learning curve as Photoshop, but once you’ve made your way through a few tutorials, it’s quite comfortable. The interface is highly customizable, so you can pare things back or leverage multiple windows and toolbars as needed. If you desire a specific feature, there’s probably an add-on for it. ![]() There’s also a huge community of developers and artists who have created a wide array of plugins, making this a highly adaptable program. GIMP boasts a huge number of features and functions that rival Photoshop. In our hands-on review, we called Gimp "our top pick for the best free photo editor, and comes with a huge array of professional-quality functions for fine-tuning snaps and creating your own artwork from scratch. GIMP (GNU Image Manipulation Program) is a professional, open-source photography powerhouse that works on Linux, Windows, and macOS. So, it's both the best Adobe Photoshop alternative overall, and an excellent free alternative, too. |
