Production of quarks and gluons in hadron collisions tests Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) over a wide range of energy. Models of QCD are implemented in event generators to simulate hadron collisions and evolution of quarks and gluons into…
We present results of a toy model study of performance of the Time-of-Flight detectors integrated into forward proton detectors. The goal of the ToF device is to suppress effects of additional soft processes (so called pile-up) accompanying…
For classical fault analysis, a transient fault is required to be injected during runtime, e.g., only at a specific round. Instead, Persistent Fault Analysis (PFA) introduces a powerful class of fault attacks that allows for a fault to be…
