The Scintillation of Stars [PDF]

open access: bronzeNature, 1950
IN a recent communication in Nature1, Dr. A. H. R. Goldie has suggested that the scintillation of stars may be associated with waves at an interface between two currents of air which have a difference of temperature of the order of 5–7° F. “Such waves,” he writes, “should not uncommonly have an amplitude of the order of up to 500–1,000 ft.

Radioactive contamination of scintillators [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Modern Physics A Vol. 33, No. 9 (2018) 1843007 (42 pages), 2018
Low counting experiments (search for double $\beta$ decay and dark matter particles, measurements of neutrino fluxes from different sources, search for hypothetical nuclear and subnuclear processes, low background $\alpha$, $\beta$, $\gamma$ spectrometry) require extremely low background of a detector.

Evaluation of an EPID in vivo monitoring system using local and external independent audit measurements

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 23, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Purpose The aim of this work was to evaluate the SunCHECK PerFRACTION, the software for in vivo monitoring using EPID images. Materials/Methods First, the PerFRACTION ability to detect errors was investigated simulating two situations: (1) variation of LINAC output and (2) variation of the phantom thickness.

Analysis of Ionospheric Scintillation Characteristics in Sub-Antarctica Region with GNSS Data at Macquarie Island

open access: yesSensors, 2017
Ionospheric scintillation has a great impact on radio propagation and electronic system performance, thus is extensively studied currently. The influence of scintillation on Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) is particularly evident, making GNSS ...

Multi-Station and Multi-Instrument Observations of F-Region Irregularities in the Taiwan–Philippines Sector

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
In this study, a multi-station and multi-instrument system, organized and proposed for ionospheric scintillation and equatorial spread-F (ESF) specification and their associated motions in the Taiwan–Philippines sector, is outlined. The issues related to
