The PANDA detector requires excellent particle identification (PID) for the full solid angle and a wide momentum range. In the barrel region of the detector the hadron PID will be performed by a DIRC counter. The successful BABAR DIRC inspired the baseline design of the PANDA Barrel DIRC, which was further advanced by such modifications as fast photon timing and focusing optics. Narrow long...

Cardiac arrhythmias, like atrial fibrillation, are often treated by radiofrequency catheter ablation. Thereby scar tissue is created to isolate the heart’s conduction system from anatomical areas containing misled electrical signals, which generate and sustain the irregular heartbeat. Catheter ablation procedures have a varying success rate and can lead to severe side effects or even death...
