We here describe the result of simulations of 15 generic neutron instruments for the long-pulsed European Spallation Source. All instruments have been simulated for 20 different settings of the source time structure, corresponding to pulse lengths between ...
Network industries, such as electricity, railways and air transport, are very complex technical, economic, and political systems in which the alignment between technology and institutions has a significant impact on performance. This alignment has been stu ...
Large shareholders may play an important role for firm performance and policies, but identifying this empirically presents a challenge due to the endogeneity of ownership structures. We develop and test an empirical framework that allows us to separate sel ...
It is an objective of the present invention to provide a system for measuring the particle size distribution of the particles of a particulate matter and, simultaneously, its crystalline nature. This objective is achieved according to the present invention ...
We discuss the methods employed to photometrically calibrate the data acquired by the Low Frequency Instrument on Planck. Our calibration is based on a combination of the orbital dipole plus the solar dipole, caused respectively by the motion of the Planck ...
This paper presents an approach to study droplet activation kinetics from measurements of CCN activity by the Continuous Flow Streamwise Thermal Gradient CCN Chamber (CFSTGC) and a comprehensive model of the instrument and droplet growth. The model, which ...
The year 2011 having been proclaimed by UNESCO and IUPAP “International Year of Chemistry”, it seems fitting to have a close look at a physical chemistry instrument, the Polaristrobometer, an early form of polarimeter/saccharimeter, at its inventor, the Sw ...
Synopsis: This project is about using musical recordings of string instruments to determine on which strings notes have been played. It includes the study of the spectral content of the recordings and the development of a robust classifica ...
«Les hommes n'acceptent le changement que dans la nécessité et ils ne voient la nécessité que dans la crise». [MONNET, JEAN, extrait de Mémoires, 1976]. La crise économique qui frappe actuellement l'Union Européenne pousse chaque jour un peu plus son peupl ...
