Ecogeography and utility to plant breeding of the crop wild relatives of sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.).

Frontiers in plant science

Kantar MB, Sosa CC, Khoury CK, Castañeda-Álvarez NP, Achicanoy HA, Bernau V, Kane NC, Marek L, Seiler G, Rieseberg LH.
PMID: 26500675
Front Plant Sci. 2015 Oct 08;6:841. doi: 10.3389/fpls.2015.00841. eCollection 2015.

Crop wild relatives (CWR) are a rich source of genetic diversity for crop improvement. Combining ecogeographic and phylogenetic techniques can inform both conservation and breeding. Geographic occurrence, bioclimatic, and biophysical data were used to predict species distributions, range overlap...

Direct measurement of the biphoton Wigner function through two-photon interference.

Scientific reports

Douce T, Eckstein A, Walborn SP, Khoury AZ, Ducci S, Keller A, Coudreau T, Milman P.
PMID: 24346262
Sci Rep. 2013 Dec 18;3:3530. doi: 10.1038/srep03530.

The Hong-Ou-Mandel (HOM) experiment was a benchmark in quantum optics, evidencing the non-classical nature of photon pairs, later generalized to quantum systems with either bosonic or fermionic statistics. We show that a simple modification in the well-known and widely...

OBJECTIVE: To estimate the entrance surface air kerma (Ka,e) and air kerma in the region of radiosensitive organs in radiographs of pediatric paranasal sinuses.MATERIALS AND METHODS: Patient data and irradiation parameters were collected in examinations of the paranasal sinuses...

Reversible Gating of Plasmonic Coupling for Optical Signal Amplification.

ACS applied materials & interfaces

Khoury CG, Fales AM, Vo-Dinh T.
PMID: 27347606
ACS Appl Mater Interfaces. 2016 Jul 20;8(28):18157-64. doi: 10.1021/acsami.6b04623. Epub 2016 Jul 07.

Amplification of optical signals is useful for a wide variety of applications, ranging from data signal transmission to chemical sensing and biomedical diagnostics. One such application in chemical sensing is surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS), an important technique for increasing...

Crop wild relatives of sweetpotato [Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam., I. series Batatas] have the potential to contribute to breeding objectives for this important root crop. Uncertainty in regard to species boundaries and their phylogenetic relationships, the limited availability of...

Adaptive defect and pattern detection in amplitude and phase structures via photorefractive four-wave mixing.

Applied optics

Nehmetallah G, Banerjee P, Khoury J.
PMID: 26560795
Appl Opt. 2015 Nov 10;54(32):9622-9. doi: 10.1364/AO.54.009622.

This work comprises the theoretical and numerical validations of experimental work on pattern and defect detection of periodic amplitude and phase structures using four-wave mixing in photorefractive materials. The four-wave mixing optical processor uses intensity filtering in the Fourier...

Quantum stability of chameleon field theories.

Physical review letters

Upadhye A, Hu W, Khoury J.

Phys Rev Lett. 2012 Jul 27;109(4):041301. doi: 10.1103/PhysRevLett.109.041301. Epub 2012 Jul 23.

Chameleon scalar fields are dark-energy candidates which suppress fifth forces in high density regions of the Universe by becoming massive. We consider chameleon models as effective field theories and estimate quantum corrections to their potentials. Requiring that quantum corrections...

Acute appendicitis presenting as priapism in an 8 year old.

Priapism is uncommon in children. When it does occur the etiology is usually leukemia, sickle cell disease, or trauma.(1) We present a case of priapism in a child in whom the underlying etiology was acute appendicitis. To our knowledge,...

Observation of image transfer and phase conjugation in stimulated down-conversion.
