We present the design, prototype developments and test results of the new time-of-flight detector (ToFD) which is part of the R3B experimental setup at GSI and FAIR, Darmstadt, Germany. The ToFD detector is able to detect heavy-ion residues of all charges at relativistic energies with a relative energy precision σΔE/ΔE of up to 1% and a time precision of up to 14 ps (sigma). Together with an
Multi-gigawatt-scale hydrogen production by water electrolysis is central in the green transition when it comes to storage of energy and forming the basis for sustainable fuels and materials. Alkaline water electrolysis plays a key role in this context, as the scale of implementation is not limited by the availability of scarce and expensive raw materials. Even though it is a mature technology, th
This paper introduces the use of a multi-zone modelling approach for analysing smoke spread in tunnels. The approach suggested in this paper is based on an existing model, i.e., the Multi-Zone Fire model developed for large spaces. The Multi-Zone Fire model has been adapted and modified for tunnel fire scenarios by including features that consider longitudinal ventilation flow, tunnel gradient and
INTRODUCTION: Treatment efficacy of reflex syncope is mainly related to the mechanism underlying syncope rather than its etiology or clinical presentation. The predominant mechanism underlying reflex syncope can be assigned to hypotensive or to bradycardic phenotypes.AREAS COVERED: Methodology and diagnostic criteria of the most useful tests for the identification of hypotensive and bradycardic ph
Regression testing is a means to assure that a change in the software, or its execution environment, does not introduce new defects. It involves the expensive undertaking of rerunning test cases. Several techniques have been proposed to reduce the number of test cases to execute in regression testing, however, there is no research on how to assess industrial relevance and applicability of such tec
Water resources face risks due to water use stress and water scarcity. Collective and integrated actions by different institutions and stakeholders are needed to reduce future water risks. This paper aimed to assess the potential for a water stewardship partnership in River Nzoia Basin to reduce future water risks facing the ecosystem, agriculture, and other sectors by quantifying water risks and
The testing method proposed in the Cleanroom methodology is Statistical Usage Testing. This testing technique is based on that the test cases represent theoperational profile. The failure data from testing is then used in a software reliability model to certify the reliability of the software. This paper introduces a new model for modelling the usage of the system, i.e. the operational profile. It
There is a significant interest in scene reconstructionfrom underwater images given its utility for oceanic researchand for recreational image manipulation. In this paperwe propose a novel algorithm for two view camera motionestimation for underwater imagery. Our method leveragesthe constraints provided by the attenuation propertiesof water and its effects on the appearance of the color todetermin
The latency and amplitude of the midlatency auditive evoked potential's (AEP) Nb-trough has been found to indicate the depth of anaesthesis. The aim of this paper is to present a system that reliably estimates these parameters without a long time delay. The result shows that it is possible to estimate and track changes in latency and amplitude of the Nb-trough with a delay below 1 minute at a stim
MAX IV-laboratoriet är en anläggning med syfte att producerasynkrotronljus till forskning. När laddade partiklar accelereras skickar de ut energi i form av strålning kallad synkrotronljus. Synkrotronljus är intensivt ljus med många olika våglängder och är därför väldigt användbart för att studera strukturer och processer inom många olika fält såsom materialforskning, medicin, geologi och arkeologiThe MAX IV facility includes two storage rings, operated at 1.5 and 3 GeV energy, for the purpose of producing high-brilliance synchrotron radiation for users. The 1.5 GeV ring replaces the previous MAX II and MAX III storage rings as a source of UV and soft X-rays, whereas the 3 GeV ring is optimized for hard X-rays. The 3 GeV ring is the first of a new generation of synchrotron light storagering
Charge balance functions reflect the evolution of charged pair correlations throughout the stagesof pair production, dynamical diffusion, and hadronization in heavy-ion collisions. Microscopic mod-eling of these correlations in the full collision volume shows that the balance functions are sensitiveto the diffusivity of light quarks when studied as functions of relative azimuthal angle. By restr
A broad range tagging spectrometer together with a new beam transport system for photonuclear experiments at the MAX-laboratory in Lund is described. The spectrometer consists of a quadrupole followed by an Elbek-type dipole and has a large momentum acceptance. It can produce both polarized and unpolarized tagged photons in the energy range 10–80 MeV with an energy resolution of about 300 keV.
With laser iridotomy it may often be difficult to achieve total penetration of the iris, particularly in very light or very dark irides. It may be impossible to determine with the slit-lamp whether a small laser iridotomy is functionally penetrating. We describe a straightforward method to test iridotomies for aqueous flow patency. Transcorneally introduced fluorescein is used to delineate any aqu
