A quasi-one-dimensional analytic model is proposed for the internal fluid of rotating detonation combustors (RDCs). This model uses the shock-tube model that constrains the flow to have only a longitudinal component, while admitting the…

The pressure exerted on a wall by a gas at equilibrium does not depend on the shape of the confining potential defining the wall. In contrast, it has been shown recently [A.P. Solon et al., Nat. Phys. 11, 673 (2015)] that a gas of…

A quality assurance and performance qualification laboratory was built at McGill University for the Canadian-made small-strip Thin Gap Chamber (sTGC) muon detectors produced for the 2019-2020 ATLAS experiment muon spectrometer upgrade. The…
