Second-order optical differentiation of a 3D light beam at oblique incidence using a multilayer metal-dielectric structure by A.I. Kashapov, L.L. Doskolovich, E.A. Bezus, N.V. Golovastikov, D.A. Bykov

“…It is shown that the transformation of the profile of a three-dimensional light beam occurring upon its reflection from a layered structure can be described using the theory of linear systems. The transfer function of the corresponding linear system is obtained, and it is shown that if a layered structure has a reflection zero of the second order with respect to the spatial frequency for one of the polarizations, the transformation performed by the structure corresponds to the weighted sum of the second derivatives of the incident beam profile with respect to the spatial coordinates. …”

The Temporal Pattern of a Lesion Modulates the Functional Network Topology of Remote Brain Regions by W. De Baene, G. J. M. Rutten, M. M. Sitskoorn

“…In this study, we compared resting-state functional connectivity data of patients with a slowly growing low-grade glioma (LGG) with that of patients with a faster-growing high-grade glioma (HGG). Using graph theory, we examined whether the tumour growth velocity modulated the functional network topology of remote areas, more specifically of the hemisphere contralateral to the lesion. …”
