ABSTRACT This paper investigates the effects of radiation on polymeric materials used as insulation systems in electrical equipment such as cables for nuclear and particle accelerator applications. After a detailed description of the physics of radiation‐induced damage in the polymeric matrix, a comprehensive analysis of the physical–chemical and ...

Machine learning assisted masking of parasitic signals in Bragg coherent diffraction imaging
Bragg coherent diffraction imaging measurement sometimes requires manual and time‐consuming cleaning of parasitic signals termed `aliens' from nearby particles that can affect the phase retrieval reconstruction. Here, we propose using a clustering technique to speed up this process while keeping the resolution of the reconstructed object high.

Prospects of detecting cosmic ray up-scattered dark matter with DUNE
Detection of sub-GeV dark matter (DM) particles in direct detection experiments is inherently difficult, as their low kinetic energies in the galactic halo are insufficient to produce observable recoils of the heavy nuclei in the detectors.

Measurements of the Cosmic Ray Composition with Air Shower Experiments
In this paper we review air shower data related to the mass composition of cosmic rays above 10$^{15}$ eV. After explaining the basic relations between air shower observables and the primary mass and energy of cosmic rays, we present different approaches

A North Greenland‐wide in situ cosmogenic 14C ice sheet chronology since the Lateglacial
Knowledge of the glacial history of the North Greenland Ice Sheet is crucial due to its high sensitivity to climate change. However, because the ice sheet in this region is predominantly cold‐based, resulting in low erosion rates, using 10Be exposure dating to establish reliable ice sheet chronologies has proven very challenging due to nuclide ...

Cosmic ray sources and detectors
Abstract The origin of cosmic rays has remained an enduring mystery in astrophysics since their discovery by Victor Hess in 1912. However, extensive studies on the energy spectrum, mass composition, and angular distributions of cosmic rays have been conducted through both space-based and ground-based experiments.
