The performance of vehicle dynamic model (VDM)-based navigation largely depends on the accurate determination of aerodynamic coefficients that are unknown a priori. Among different techniques, such as model simulations or experimental analysis in a wind tu ...
In this work, we consider open-boundary conditions at high temperatures, as they can potentially be of help to measure the topological susceptibility. In particular, we measure the extent of the boundary effects at T = 1.5T(C) and T = 2.7T(C). In the first ...
In situ observations of snowfall over the Antarctic Ice Sheet are scarce. Currently, continent-wide assessments of snowfall are limited to information from the Cloud Profiling Radar on board the CloudSat satellite, which has not been evaluated up to now. I ...
Accurate astronomical distance determination is crucial for all fields in astrophysics, from Galactic to cosmological scales. Despite, or perhaps because of, significant efforts to determine accurate distances, using a wide range of methods, tracers, and t ...
We present a study of B0→Ds*+π- and B0→Ds*-K+ decays based on a sample of 657×106 BB̄ events collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e+e- collider. We measure the branching fractions to be B(B0→Ds*+π-)=(1.75±0.34(stat)±0.17(syst) ±0 ...
