Recent observations with the dispersive X-ray spectrometers aboard Chandra and Newton Observatory have begun to probe the properties of the X-ray intergalactic medium (IGM) at small redshifts. Using large quantities (~950 ksec) of…

The technique of intensity mapping (IM) has emerged as a powerful tool to explore the universe at $z < 6$. IM measures the integrated emission from sources over a broad range of frequencies, unlocking significantly more information than…

The Infra-Red Video Bolometer (IRVB) is a diagnostic equipped with an infra-red camera that measures the total radiated power in thousands of LOSs within a large field of view (FOV). Recently validated in MAST-U, it offers a high spatial…

Although subjective tests are most accurate image/video quality assessment tools, they are extremely time demanding. In the past two decades, a variety of objective tools, such as SSIM, IW-SSIM, SPSIM, FSIM, etc., have been devised, that…

The first study of the local interstellar medium (LISM) toward Puppis-Vela (l = 245\degr to 275\degr, b = -15\degr to +5\degr, d < 200 pc) is presented in this paper. A study of the locations, sizes, and physical characteristics of local…

We present Acoustic Inertial Measurement (AIM), a one-of-a-kind technique for indoor drone localization and tracking. Indoor drone localization and tracking are arguably a crucial, yet unsolved challenge: in GPS-denied environments,…
