High-resolution maps of the characteristic energy of precipitating auroral particles [PDF]
For the first time we produce high-resolution maps of the characteristic energy of precipitating electrons from ground-based instrumentation in the auroral zone over northern Scandinavia. This is done by combining intensity-calibrated optical data at 557.

Performance simulation of a Shashlik sampling electromagnetic calorimeter for NICA-MPD
BackgroundThe Shashlik electromagnetic calorimeter (ECAL) is used in the Nuclotron-based Ion Collider Facility's MultiPurpose detector (NICA-MPD) of the Russian heavy ion superconducting synchrotron. It is designed as a cylindrical barrel divided into 32

Component characterization and commissioning of a gamma-PET prototype detector system
Hybrid imaging systems, comprising PET and Compton camera modules, have recently gained in interest, due to their capability to simultaneously detect positron annihilation photons and γ-rays from single-photon emitting sources as also used in SPECT.

High resolution modelling for performance assessment of future dwellings [PDF]
In future low-energy buildings, electrical power and hot water use will feature prominently in the overall energy demand. Unlike space heating, these demand constituents are intermittent and vary rapidly over a few seconds.
