If the time taken to cool naturally is known or estimated and the grain size is assumed to be SD, then non-interacting SD theory can be applied to calculate the difference in TRM acquired on cooling in the laboratory and after firing (e.g., Halgedahl et al. (1980)).
The acquired temperature (cool-down) information in the near field can be used to provide thermal feedback to the MR-HIFU system and use this to adjust the cooling periods between the subsequent energy depositions in real time.
"Put something in a burrito and it acquires this cool edge," he says.
For one thing, now that – in year 10 – "everyone smokes", non-smokers and other independent-minded girls are acquiring a cool of their own.
