Two‐toed sloths use their thoracic limbs for more frequent and greater suspensory support than three‐toed sloths and have muscle architectural properties consistent with stability of the pectoral girdle, enhanced flexor force/torque applied at the shoulder and elbow joints, and grip on the support as indicated by their myology. Abstract Two‐toed sloths

Development and performance analysis of glass-based gas-tight RPCs for muography applications [PDF]
To achieve high-resolution muography of compact targets in scenarios with complex logistical constraints, we are developing a portable muon detector system utilizing glass Resistive Plate Chambers (RPCs). Although RPCs are well understood and widely used,

Hoffmann's two‐toed sloth I: Complete myology in the thoracic limb of Choloepus (Pilosa: Xenarthra)
Two‐toed sloths use their thoracic limbs for more frequent and prolonged suspensory support than three‐toed sloths and accordingly demonstrate myological traits consistent with stability of the pectoral girdle, enhanced flexor force/torque applied at the elbow joint, and grip on the support.

Cardiac timing modulates the contribution of compliance to effective arterial elastance
Abstract Effective arterial elastance (Ea) is a lumped descriptor of arterial load. The contributions of arterial characteristics to Ea, and their interactions with cardiac timing parameters, have not been fully elaborated. Previous studies have shown that Ea can be approximated by equations of the form Ea ≈ R/T + k/C, where R is either total or ...

Correction of temperature drifts in the timing from beam scintillators and RPCs [PDF]
We present evidence for significant drifts with ambient temperature of the timing measurements by beam scintillators and barrel RPCs. The average drift of the time of flight measured by the barrel RPCs is ~60 ps/°C.

Quantum and Classical Dynamics with Random Permutation Circuits
Understanding thermalization in quantum many-body systems is among the most enduring problems in modern physics. A particularly interesting question concerns the role played by quantum mechanics in this process, i.e., whether thermalization in quantum ...

An analytical description of rate effects in timing RPCs
An analytical framework for describing the RPC behavior under high irradiation is proposed, including the effect of the fluctuations of the field.
