On the origin of the diffuse gamma-ray background radiation [PDF]
We show that inverse Compton scattering of cosmic-microwave-background and starlight photons by cosmic-ray electrons in the interstellar and intergalactic space explains well the spectrum and intensity of the diffuse gamma-ray background radiation (GBR),

Abstract High‐resolution geospatial soil moisture measurements are needed to inform hydrological modeling and to guide water management in agriculture, especially in highly heterogeneous systems such as micro‐irrigated orchards. In this research, we used a Portable L‐band Radiometer (PoLRa) to map very high‐resolution (<2 m) soil surface moisture in ...

Probing the statistic in the cosmic microwave background
Kolmogorov's statistic is used for the analysis of properties of perturbations in the Cosmic Microwave Background signal. We obtain the maps of the Kolmogorov stochasticity parameter for W and V band temperature data of WMAP which are differently ...

Abstract The Eastern Alps have been influenced by post‐collisional indentation tectonics since the Miocene. Currently, Adria‐Europe convergence, albeit slow, is accommodated and distributed across several faults. The seismogenic potential of some of these faults is unclear. We applied optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) and electron spin resonance (

Abstract The increasing frequency, intensity, and duration of extreme heat and drought events in a warming climate make it crucial to understand the relationship between surface and subsurface water storage dynamics during these events. Changes in water storage can be studied globally using satellite observations.

Abstract This study presents a validated design of a dual‐band wireless relay system of “pucks” for through‐ice communication between a cryobot and a surface lander during a future exploration of the Europan cryosphere. The design of a terrestrial demonstration system and the results of a 103 m through‐ice system test in a relevant environment near ...

Precision cosmology as a test for statistics [PDF]
We compute the shift in the epoch of matter-radiation equality due to the possible existence of a different statistical (non-extensive) background. The shift is mainly caused by a different neutrino-photon temperature ratio.

Design of Waveguide NbN‐Based Superconductor–Insulator–Superconductor Mixer for 650 GHz
This research work focuses on a waveguide NbN‐based superconductor–insulator–superconductor mixer operating at 650 GHz. The signal coupling circuit is designed using a waveguide‐microstrip coupling structure, and the return loss obtained is lower than −16 dB. For the mixing circuit, its return loss is less than −7.5 dB, and the return loss reduces with
