MESA (Modules for Experiments in Stellar Astrophysics) has become very popular among astrophysicists as a powerful and reliable code to simulate stellar evolution. Analyzing the output data thoroughly may, however, present some challenges…
The experimental systematic uncertainties associated to the reconstruction and calibration of the objects appearing in top quark final states at the LHC and Tevatron are discussed. The strategies followed in the ATLAS and CMS experiments…
The transient 500 s X-ray pulsar MAXI J1409-619 was discovered by the slit cameras aboard MAXI on October 17, 2010, and soon after accurately localized by Swift. We found that the source position was serendipitously observed in 2000 during…
The HERMES and SMC experiments have determined the contribution of different quark flavors to the nucleon spin in a large range of Bjorken-x via semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering. The main goal of the COMPASS experiment is to measure…
Comprehensive studies with the MARS15(2016) Monte-Carlo code are described on evaluation of prompt and residual radiation levels induced by nominal and accidental beam losses in the 5-MW, 2-GeV European Spallation Source (ESS) Linac. These…
We present a detailed cross-correlation (CCF) and power spectrum re-analysis of the X-ray light curves of the bright Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC5548 obtained with EXOSAT. The 0.05-2 keV and 1-4 keV light curves are cross--correlated with the 1-9…
A concise review is given on the past two decades' results from laboratory experiments on collisionless magnetic reconnection in direct relation with space measurements, especially by Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) mission. Highlights…
This study presents the development of multivariate functional Moran's I, along with a novel approach termed multivariate functional areal spatial principal component analysis (mfasPCA), specifically designed for analyzing functional areal…
Several results from the ZEUS Collaboration were presented at this Workshop. The highlights are presented in this summary, and include results from NLO QCD fits and determination of alphas, from forward jets and diffractive final states,…
I present the science goals and give a brief summary of the Wide Angle X-ray survey with a Wide Field X-ray Telescope (WAXS/WFXT) mission proposal (Phase A) which will be submitted to the Italian Space Agency (ASI) following the call for…
Mkn 421 was repeatedly observed with BeppoSAX in 1997-1998. This is the first of two papers where we present the results of a thorough temporal and spectral analysis of all the data available to us, focusing in particular on the flare of…
We present a detailed discussion of how to obtain precise stellar photometry in crowded fields using images from multi-conjugate adaptive optics (MCAO) systems, with the intent of informing the scientific development of this key technology…
This paper given at the meeting on "Mapping, Measuring and Modelling the Universe" presents three topics: 1) the study of the clusters and groups of galaxies found serendipitously in the North Ecliptic Pole (NEP) region of the ROSAT all-sky…
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are typically encountered as mixtures of distinct chemicals with distinct effects on multiple health outcomes. Estimating joint causal effects using spatially-dependent observed data is…
A personal selection is made of some of the hot topics debated at this conference, including examples of using our knowledge of QCD to make electroweak measurements, structure functions at low x in the light of the corrections to the…
We present the first in a series of papers describing the X-ray properties of a sample of 18 Seyfert 1 galaxies, using data obtained by \asca. The imaging data reveal a number of serendipitous hard X-ray sources in some source fields, but…
We present the analysis of 31 observations of 20 bright Compton thin Seyfert 2s, in the 0.1-200 keV band, performed with the BeppoSAX satellite. The sample consists of all Seyfert 2s in the BeppoSAX public archive, with a 2-10 keV flux…
Recent theoretical progress in understanding high-energy scattering beyond the mean field approximation is reviewed. The role of Lorentz invariance and pomeron loops in the evolution, the relation between high-energy QCD and statistical…
