Imaging of high-Z material for nuclear contraband detection with a minimal prototype of a Muon Tomography station based on GEM detectors

, 2010
Muon Tomography based on the measurement of multiple scattering of atmospheric cosmic ray muons in matter is a promising technique for detecting heavily shielded high-Z radioactive materials (U, Pu) in cargo or vehicles. The technique uses the deflection

Innovative methodology for flexible monitoring of various bioprocesses by using pre‐existing Raman data coupled with automated transfer learning technique

Biotechnology Progress, EarlyView.
The application of the transfer learning algorithm successfully allowed the use of a model built on process A for real‐time monitoring of process B. This study shows the improvement obtained with this methodology compared to the direct application of the model.

Cosmic-ray induced background intercomparison with actively shielded HPGe detectors at underground locations

, 2015
The main background above 3\,MeV for in-beam nuclear astrophysics studies with $\gamma$-ray detectors is caused by cosmic-ray induced secondaries. The two commonly used suppression methods, active and passive shielding, against this kind of background ...

Low Background Radiation Detection Techniques and Mitigation of Radioactive Backgrounds

Frontiers in Physics, 2020
The study of rare fundamental physics phenomena, such as double-beta decay, rare nuclear decays and dark matter, requires very low levels of background radiation in order to observe a signal.

Quark nuggets search using 2350 Kg gravitational waves aluminum bar detectors [PDF]

, 2013
The gravitational wave resonant detectors can be used as detectors of quark nuggets, like nuclearites (nuclear matter with a strange quark). This search has been carried out using data from two 2350 Kg, 2 K cooled, aluminum bar detectors: NAUTILUS ...

Tracking Cosmic Rays by CRAYFIS (Cosmic Rays Found in Smartphones) Global Detector [PDF]

Proceedings of The 34th International Cosmic Ray Conference — PoS(ICRC2015), 2016
The purpose of this research paper is to develop efficient site arrays of using CRAYFIS(Cosmic Rays Found in Smartphones) which gives real time-radiation map on temporal and spatial scales.It is suggested how a map can be prepared in terms of exact azimuth,zenith and altitude angles so that the direction of the cosmic rays could be estimated.

Assessing the intensity of Late Quaternary humid phases in the Nefud Desert, northern Arabia

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The climate history of the major dryland zones of the world, such as the Saharo–Arabian Desert belt, plays a key role in the dispersal of early humans through these intermittently inhospitable regions. Here, we assess the relative intensity of Late Quaternary humid phases in northern Arabia through lithological, geochemical, palaeoecological ...
