Impact of beam-coupling impedance on the Schottky spectrum of bunched beam

Tatiana Pieloni, Nicolas Frank Mounet, Christophe Emmanuel R. Lannoy

The Schottky monitors of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) can be used for non-invasive beam diagnostics to estimate various bunch characteristics, such as tune, chromaticity, bunch profile or synchrotron frequency distribution. However, collective effects, ...

Planetary-Scale Byzantine Fault Tolerance

Matteo Monti

The scale and pervasiveness of the Internet make it a pillar of planetary communication, industry and economy, as well as a fundamental medium for public discourse and democratic engagement. In stark contrast with the Internet's decentralized infrastructur ...

DIABLO: A Benchmark Suite for Blockchains

Rachid Guerraoui, Gauthier Jérôme Timothée Voron, Vincent Gramoli, Andrei Lebedev

With the recent advent of blockchains, we have witnessed a plethora of blockchain proposals. These proposals range from using work to using time, storage or stake in order to select blocks to be appended to the chain. As a drawback it makes it difficult fo ...

LHC Schottky Spectrum from Macro-Particle Simulations

Tatiana Pieloni, Nicolas Frank Mounet, Christophe Emmanuel R. Lannoy

We introduce a method for building Schottky spectra from macro-particle simulations performed with the PyHEADTAIL code, applied to LHC beam conditions. In this case, the use of a standard Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) algorithm to recover the spectral conte ...

Natural competence of the pathogen Acinetobacter baumannii: an elusive phenomenon

Nina Vesel

Natural competence for transformation is an important driver of horizontal DNA exchange between different organisms. This can result in accumulation of dangerous genetic features, such as antibiotic resistance genes, in a single organism. One example of an ...

An Inverse-Filter-Based Method to Locate Partial Discharge Sources in Power Transformers

Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Marcos Rubinstein, Hamidreza Karami

Partial discharge (PD) occurrence in power transformers can lead to irreparable damage to the power network. In this paper, the inverse filter (IF) method to localize PDs in power transformers is proposed. To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this is the ...

Revisiting Tendermint: Design Tradeoffs, Accountability, and Practical Use

Rachid Guerraoui, Jovan Komatovic, Zarko Milosevic, Dragos-Adrian Seredinschi

Tendermint is a deterministic consensus protocol and is one of the most mature implementations of its kind. This implementation is used as the core for building State Machine Replication (SMR) platforms with Byzantine fault-tolerant (BFT) guarantees. A not ...

Function Integration, Reconstruction And Approximation Using Rank-1 Lattices

Fabio Nobile, Giovanni Migliorati

We consider rank-1 lattices for integration and reconstruction of functions with series expansion supported on a finite index set. We explore the connection between the periodic Fourier space and the non-periodic cosine space and Chebyshev space, via tent ...

Hyperbolic Fourier series

Maryna Viazovska

In this article we explain the essence of the interrelation described in [PNAS 118, 15 (2021)] on how to write explicit interpolation formula for solutions of the Klein-Gordon equation by using the recent Fourier pair interpolation formula of Viazovska and ...

Cooperative energy management of a community of smart-buildings: A Blockchain approach

Maher Kayal, Olivier Valentin Henri Van Cutsem

Demand Response (DR) is progressively moving from a centralized, unidirectional structure to a set of advanced decentralized mechanisms that better balance distributed supply and demand. This paper presents a decentralized cooperative DR framework to manag ...
