Presentation for the 2005 University Scholars Day at the University of North Texas discussing research on lipids in Caenorhabditis elegans exposed to oxygen deprivation.

This paper discusses research on modeling and optimization of deflection slits for fast-pulsing of a low energy ion beam. The authors also investigate simulated slit configurations that reduce the length of the fields along the beam axis, thus optimizing the pulsing mechanism.
