A Statistical Analysis of Sporadic-E Characteristics Associated with GNSS Radio Occultation Phase and Amplitude Scintillations

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2022
Statistical GNSS-RO measurements of phase and amplitude scintillation are analyzed at the mid-latitudes in the local summer for a 100 km altitude. These conditions are known to contain frequent sporadic-E, and the S4-σϕ trends provide insight into the ...

Development of Nd-Doped CaWO4 Single Crystalline Scintillators Emitting Near-Infrared Light

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
Nd-doped CaWO4 single crystals with dopant concentrations of 0.1, 0.5, and 1% were synthesized by the floating zone method. The transmission, photoluminescence, and scintillation properties were evaluated from ultraviolet to near-infrared (NIR) ranges ...

Primary and secondary scintillation measurements in a xenon Gas Proportional Scintillation Counter

open access: yes, 2010
NEXT is a new experiment to search for neutrinoless double beta decay using a 100 kg radio-pure high-pressure gaseous xenon TPC. The detector requires excellent energy resolution, which can be achieved in a Xe TPC with electroluminescence readout ...

Intra-Day Variability and the Interstellar Medium Towards 0917+624 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
The intra-day variable source 0917+624 displays annual changes in its timescale of variability. This is explained in terms of a scintillation model in which changes in the variability timescale are due to changes in the relative velocity of the ...

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

Nuclear recoil energy scale in liquid xenon with application to the direct detection of dark matter

open access: yes, 2011
We show for the first time that the quenching of electronic excitation from nuclear recoils in liquid xenon is well-described by Lindhard theory, if the nuclear recoil energy is reconstructed using the combined (scintillation and ionization) energy scale

Drones and global navigation satellite systems: current evidence from polar scientists [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2020
Aerial unmanned vehicles, so-called drones, present a paradigm shift away from the long-term use by scientists of manned aeroplanes and helicopters. This is evident from the number of research articles that focus on data obtained with drones.

Long-term operation of a multi-channel cosmic muon system based on scintillation counters with MRS APD light readout [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
A Cosmic Ray Test Facility (CRTF) is the first large-scale implementation of a scintillation triggering system based on a new scintillation technique known as START.

Microstructural Evolution and Vacancy Defect Formation in Mn–Mo–Ni RPV Steel Under Low Cycle Fatigue: Insights From EBSD and PALS

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Low‐cycle fatigue damage in Mn–Mo–Ni reactor pressure vessel steel is examined using a combined electron backscatter diffraction and positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy approach. The study correlates texture evolution, dislocation substructure development, and vacancy‐type defect formation across uniform, necked, and fracture regions, providing

Investigation of Thermo‐Chemical Processes in Commercial MgO‐C Refractory Bricks With and Without MgO‐C Recyclate at Elevated Temperatures

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study investigates thermo‐chemical processes during high‐temperature testing of two commercial MgO‐C brick grades, one containing 47.5 wt.% MgO‐C recyclate. Using ETV, DTA/TG‐MS, XRD, and SEM/EDS/EBSD, mechanisms such as carbothermal reduction of magnesia, impurity incorporation into the secondary MgO surface layer, and calcium‐rich phase ...
