We have updated our previous study on the possibility to observe the rare B0_s -> 2mu decay with detailed simulation of the TDR version of the CMS detector. The full simulation and reconstruction procedure has been done both for the signal…
ALEPH and DELPHI were the first experiments operating a silicon vertex detector at LEP. During the past 10 years of data taking the DELPHI Silicon Tracker was upgraded three times to follow the different tracking requirements for LEP 1 and…
Over the past decades, power systems have experienced drastic transformations in order to address the growth in energy demand, reduce carbon emissions, and enhance power quality and energy efficiency. This shift to the smart grid concept…
The most common technique for generating B-mode ultrasound (US) images is delay and sum (DAS) beamforming, where the signals received at the transducer array are sampled before an appropriate delay is applied. This necessitates sampling…
We report updates on two analyses of inclusive semileptonic B decays based on a dataset of 89 million BB events recorded with the BABAR detector at the Y(4S) resonance. Events are selected by fully reconstructing the decay of one B meson…
This paper considers the problem of reconstructing an object with high-resolution using several low-resolution images, which are degraded due to nonuniform defocus effects caused by angular misalignment of the subpixel motions. The new…
The Total Internal Reflection Ultrasonic Sensor (TIRUS) is a device especially aimed at detecting subsurface flaws in a tested specimen based on the frustrated total internal reflection of bulk ultrasonic waves in the sensor body [1]. In…
Decentralized storage systems face a fundamental trade-off between replication overhead, recovery efficiency, and security guarantees. Current approaches either rely on full replication, incurring substantial storage costs, or employ…
