Multispectral imaging (MSI) is becoming a powerful tool for tissue abnormality detection. Conventional MSI systems, however, are not readily suitable for challenges of routine clinical uses due to the fact that they are expensive, bulky, and time consuming to acquire the data. In this letter we report a novel approach to instrument MSI technology into a handheld, low-cost, standing-alone, real-time operational device that is suitable for home-based health care. It covers techniques used to produce multiple images at discrete signature wavelengths of tissues with a single shot.

    We have developed a prototype time-resolved neutron imaging detector Employing a micro-pattern gaseous detector known as the micro-pixel chamber ({\mu}PIC) coupled with a field-programmable-gate-array-based data acquisition System. Our detector system combines 100{\mu}m-level spatial and sub-{\mu}s...

    We describe HST observations In late 2011 of a transient reflection nebula around the erupting white dwarf (WD). Our observations of this light echo in the pre-existing remnant show that It is dominated by a clumpy ring with a radius of about 5", and an inclination Of 30 to 40 degrees, with the east...

    We investigate the nature of such candidates Through analyses of their spectra, images and multi-wavelength spectral energy Distributions. Here we investigate the properties of the optical spectra, Including the evolution of the broad line profiles, of all the sources Identified in our previous stud...
