Sales gas may typically contain only 0.05% helium and it is not economical to recover helium at this low concentration level. For comparison, the existing sources for commercial helium have approximately 0.3% to about 8% helium from... more
Noble gases, inert elements having isotopes produced by the decay of long half-life radionuclides, offer a powerful approach for tracing fluid circulation and dating groundwa-ters.The (U + Th)-4He water ages-calculated from the... more
This study is aimed at recognizing possible sources of dispersion of density measurements of welded ignimbritic rocks by helium pycnometer. The values of bulk density and solid fraction volume, useful for volcanological studies as well as... more
In these few pages through a number of essential intermediate steps, an opening has been made to one of the most pressing questions concerning the core of the quantum world that has remained unanswered for decades ... the enigma of the... more
In helium saturated rat abdominal adipose tissue, helium bubbles were studied at 101.3 kPa during breathing of either heliox(80:20), 100% oxygen or air after decompression from an exposure to heliox at 405 kPa for one hour. While... more
Heliox is a low density gas mixture of helium and oxygen commonly used in deep diving (> 6 ATM). This mixture has been also used for clinical purposes, particularly in the critical care setting. Due to of its physical proprieties,... more
Knowledge of the electronic structures of atomic and molecular systems deepens our understanding of the desired system. In particular, several information-theoretic quantities, such as Shannon entropy, have been applied to quantify the... more
Purpose: To develop a dynamic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) tagging technique using hyperpolarized helium-3 (HP He-3) to track lung motion. Methods and Materials: An accelerated non-Cartesian k-space trajectory was used to gain... more
Experimental research in cardiac and neuronal tissue has shown that besides volatile anesthetics and xenon, the non-anesthetic noble gas helium also reduces ischemia–reperfu-sion damage. Even though the distinct mechanisms of... more
