Measuring Transit Signal Recovery in the Kepler Pipeline II: Detection Efficiency as Calculated in One Year of Data [PDF]
The Kepler planet sample can only be used to reconstruct the underlying planet occurrence rate if the detection efficiency of the Kepler pipeline is known, here we present the results of a second experiment aimed at characterising this detection ...

Exponentially Decreasing Critical Detection Efficiency for Any Bell Inequality. [PDF]
We address the problem of closing the detection efficiency loophole in Bell experiments, which is crucial for real-world applications. Every Bell inequality has a critical detection efficiency η that must be surpassed to avoid the detection loophole ...

Research on leak monitoring of the primary circuit of a pressurized water reactor based on the 13N coincidence method [PDF]
To assess the characteristics of 13N decay, a monitoring method of the primary loop leakage rate based on the γ-γ coincidence method was proposed. In this work, sampling and measurement devices were designed, in which NaI (Tl) crystals were used

Superconducting microstrip single-photon detector with system detection efficiency over 90% at 1550 nm [PDF]
Generally, a superconducting nanowire single-photon detector (SNSPD) is composed of wires with a typical width of ~100 nm. Recent studies have found that superconducting stripes with a micrometer-scale width can also detect single photons.
