A stop to field line misconceptions

Petar Žugec, Ivica Friščić, Mihael Makek +1

For two hundred years - ever since Faraday's first conception of the field lines - hearts and minds of students have been pervaded by erroneous and unsubstantiated claims about the…

Positron Emission Tomography with quantum-entangled Compton events: first imaging results at clinically relevant activities

Mihael Makek, Ana Marija Kožuljević, Tomislav Bokulić +4

In Positron Emission Tomography, a potential, yet unutilized enhancement, may come from exploiting the quantum entanglement of the annihilation quanta, inscribed in the correlation…

A reconciliation of the Pryce-Ward and Klein-Nishina statistics for semi-classical simulations of annihilation photons correlations

Petar Žugec, Eric Andreas Vivoda, Mihael Makek +1

Two photons from the ground state para-positronium annihilation are emitted in a maximally entangled singlet state of orthogonal polarizations. In case of the Compton scattering of…

Towards polarization-enhanced PET: Study of random background in polarization-correlated Compton events

Ana Marija Kožuljević, Tomislav Bokulić, Darko Grošev +5

Positron Emission Tomography (PET) is a medical imaging modality that utilizes positron-emitting isotopes, such as Ga-68 and F-18, for many diagnostic purposes. The positron annihi…
