Lightning location systems (LLSs) are often used to obtain parameters of lightning flashes. However, the imperfect detection efficiency (DE) of these systems affects the accuracy of the results. In this paper, we focus on the effects of the imperfect DE on ...
We report on the real space profile of spin polarons in the quasi-two-dimensional frustrated dimer spin system SrCu2(BO3)(2) doped with 0.16% of Zn. The B-11 nuclear magnetic resonance spectrum exhibits 15 additional boron sites near nonmagnetic Zn impurit ...
We revisit the concept of marginal stability in glasses and determine its range of applicability in the context of an avalanche-type response to slow external driving. We argue that there is an intimate connection between a pseudogap in the distribution of ...
Method for measuring a distribution of a physical variable in a region, comprising the step of: measuring an average value of the physical variable along each of a plurality of lines in said region; estimating the distribution of the physical variable in s ...
A technique to measure in situ the behavior of the magnetic susceptibility vs. temperature, chi(T), for a cable-in-conduit-conductor (CICC) in the SULTAN test facility has been developed. The same kind of measurements are performed for the corresponding fr ...
In addition to socio-economic factors, major landforms may affect the city structure and urban form. Here we show that landforms have significant effects on the city shape and street patterns of the fast-growing Iranian cities of Dezful (a river) and Khorr ...
We study theoretically and numerically how hard frictionless particles in random packings can rearrange. We demonstrate the existence of two distinct unstable non-linear modes of rearrangement, both associated with the opening and the closing of contacts. ...
Knowledge of the actual Nb3Sn filaments' thermal strain, epsilon(th), in a cable-in-conduit conductor (CICC) is essential to predict the CICC performance in operation starting from the strand scaling laws for the critical current density J(c)(B, T, epsilon ...
In this paper, we investigate the construction of compromise estimators of location and scale, by averaging over several models selected among a specified large set of possible models. The weight given to each distribution is based on the profile likelihoo ...
This Letter proposes a method to estimate phase derivatives of arbitrary order in digital holographic interferometry. Based on the desired order, the generalized complex-lag distribution is computed from the reconstructed interference field. Subsequently, ...
