Most current assessments use ex post proxies that miss uncertainty and fail to consistently capture the rapid change in bitcoin mining. We introduce a unified, ex ante statistical model that derives expected return, downside risk, and…
It has been long recognized that radiation transport theory is the foundation for the planning and analysis of X-ray (gamma-ray) radiation therapy and for imaging. In less common but appropriate occasions as an alternative to X-rays or…
In this thesis a new model for calculating the total energy of atomic and solid systems is presented. The model is used to study the properties of the Si(100) surface and dislocation dynamics in the diamond structure. For the Si(100)…
We assess the skin thermal injury risk in the situation where a test subject is exposed to an electromagnetic beam until the occurrence of flight action. The physical process is modeled as follows. The absorbed electromagnetic power…
L-shell ionisation and subsequent Coulomb explosion of fully deuterated methyl iodide, CD$_3$I, irradiated with hard x-rays has been examined by a time-of-flight multi-ion coincidence technique. The core vacancies relax efficiently by Auger…
We propose the use of N-jettiness (\tau_N), a global event shape variable, as a probe of nuclear dynamics in lepton-nucleus collisions. It characterizes the amount of soft radiation between the jet and nuclear beam directions. We write down…
In spite of numerous scientific and practical applications, there is still no comprehensive theoretical description of the nuclear fission process based solely on protons, neutrons and their interactions. The most advanced simulations of…
This post provides commentary on recent four papers on diagnostic fracture injection testing (DFIT). The first paper uses in-situ deformation measurements to directly observe fractures opening and closing during fracture injection-falloff…

We introduce a method to reconstruct full rapidity distributions of charged particle multiplicity and net proton yields, crucial for constraining the longitudinal dynamics of nuclear matter created in the beam energy scan program. Employing…
A simple model is used to explore issues related to self-similarity, intermittency and scaling behavior in nuclear collisions. Both scaled factorial moments and power moments are considered in the investigation of these features. The…
Since the seventies, several reconstruction techniques have been proposed, and are currently used, to extrapolate and quantify eruptive parameters from sampled deposit datasets. Discrete numbers of tephra ground loadings or stratigraphic…
