Inexpensive, commonly used NaI:TI scintillators have 50% of the market share, but due to mediocre light output of 44,000 photons/MeV and 6.5% energy resolution (at 662 keV) their application is limited. Proposed technology promises to improve NaI:TI-based scintillators' properties by providing unparalleled output while maintaining low costs. To do so a combinatorial approach was used for the discovery of scintillation materials yielding the highest luminescence and lowest energy resolution. In testing, the engineered crystals of NaI:Tl attained a light output of 52,000 photons/MeV and energy resolution of 4.9% (at 662 keV). Crossing below the 5.0% energy resolution mark provides a specific direction for the development of even better future samples.

The document discusses teaching irregular verbs to students. It includes a list of irregular verbs and their past tense forms such as "ate" and "drank." Students are asked to match irregular verbs to their past tense forms in an exercise. They are also asked to identify irregular verbs from pictures. The lesson aims to help students identify and use basic irregular verbs in the past tense.

Knowledge management processes allow enterprises to improve outcomes and make better decisions faster. It fosters service expansion, and customized service, yet is often considered optional, and either skipped-over or poorly executed. Knowledge management is more than simply creating a knowledge-base and the use of a KM tool—it’s a critical inline process for capturing and leveraging essential assets of an organization. This presentation was given at a workshop that discussed the challenges of implementing knowledge management in service oriented organizations, and how you can successfully get others to support this initiative. You will also learn how a Fortune Global 500 company, exercises KM processes worldwide to generate competitive advantages, and yield profit while improving outcomes. Presented September 17, 2015 to KM Chicago and HDI Chicagoland

Counterflows music festival will take place from April 4-6, 2014 in various venues in Glasgow, Scotland. The festival will feature new commissions from artists Cara Tolmie, Luke Fowler, Mika Vainio and Lee Patterson. The opening night on April 4 will kick off with performances by AiAso, Ela Orleans and the Space Lady. Later that night, Aki Onda and Akio Suzuki will perform in the Fleming House Car Park, followed by the commissioned piece from Fowler, Vainio and Patterson at CCA. Joe McPhee will perform a short solo set leading into a late night event at Saramago Café Bar with Whilst and DJs General Ludd. On Saturday April 5

The document is a lesson plan from an English class at an international school in Cartagena. The lesson focuses on reading comprehension of a story called "Dot and Bob". The story is about a dog named Bob who helps his owner Dot and her mother plant a tree. Bob digs a hole in the ground for the tree since it is too hot for Dot and her mother to dig. The lesson plan provides the reading, questions about the story, and assigns reading it at home as a task.
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive function. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against mental illness and improve symptoms for those who already suffer from conditions like anxiety and depression.
