The new beam position monitor (BPM) system of the injector at the upgrade project of Hefei Light Source (HLS II) has 19 stripline beam position monitors. Most consist of four orthogonal symmetric stripline electrodes. The differences in…
The parameter independent (up to overall scale factors) predictions of the X(5)-$\beta^2$, X(5)-$\beta^4$, and X(3) models, which are variants of the X(5) critical point symmetry developed within the framework of the geometric collective…
We report the development of a chromatic and spherical aberration corrector based on combinations of hexapole and quadrupole fields. Thick hexapole fields are used to generate negative third order spherical aberration and to correct…
Real physical systems are only understood, experimentally or theoretically, to a finite resolution so in their analysis there is generally an ignorance of possible short-range phenomena. It is also well-known that the boundary conditions of…
The resolution of near-field beamforming is an important metric to measure how effectively users with different locations can be located. This letter identifies the condition under which the resolution of near-field beamforming is not…

Beam lifetime in storage rings and colliders is affected by, among other effects, lattice nonlinearities. Their control are of great benefit to the dynamic aperture of an accelerator, whose enlargement leads in general to more efficient…
The eccentricity of a planet's orbit and the inclination of its orbital plane encode important information about its formation and history. However, exoplanets detected via direct-imaging are often only observed over a very small fraction…
Atomic magnetometry is one of the most sensitive field-measurement techniques for biological, geo-surveying, and navigation applications. An essential process in atomic magnetometry is measurement of optical polarization rotation of a…

Beam management (BM), i.e., the process of finding and maintaining a suitable transmit and receive beam pair, can be challenging, particularly in highly dynamic scenarios. Side-information, e.g., orientation, from on-board sensors can…
This paper introduces Dr-BA, a first-of-its-kind radar bundle adjustment (BA) framework that operates directly on 2D spinning radar intensity images. Unlike camera or lidar sensors, radar is largely unaffected by precipitation, making it a…
A methodology to provide the polarization angle requirements for different sets of detectors, at a given frequency of a CMB polarization experiment, is presented. The uncertainties in the polarization angle of each detector set are related…
In order to aid in luminosity maximization at the interaction point (IP), the collision location $s_{IP}$ must be equivalent to the location of the minimum value of the beta function $s^*$. Accurate optics measurements and $s^*$ movements…
Accurate beam modeling is important in many radio astronomy applications. In this paper, we focus on beam modeling for 21-cm intensity mapping experiments using radio interferometers, though the techniques also apply to single dish…
We propose a new treatment of the Hubbard model that is based both on the coherent-potential approximation (CPA) and the virtual-crystal approximation (VCA). It is well known that the equilibrium found using the one-particle CPA Green's…
Hand-eye calibration, as a fundamental task in vision-based robotic systems, aims to estimate the transformation matrix between the coordinate frame of the camera and the robot flange. Most approaches to hand-eye calibration rely on…

Magnetic field errors pose a limitation in the performance of synchrotrons, as they excite non-systematic resonances, reduce dynamic aperture and may result in beam loss. Their effect can be compensated assuming knowledge of their location…
