Deep learning particle identification in LHCb RICH
Michele Piero Blago
Feb 17, 2023
Abstract The use of Ring Imaging Cherenkov detectors (RICH) offers a powerful technique for identifying the particle species in particle physics. These detectors produce 2D images...

Mineralogical and geochemical characteristics of triassic lithium-rich K-Bentonite deposits in Xiejiacao section, South China
Widespread alteration in the Early–Middle Triassic volcanic ash of the Xiejiacao section, south China, has resulted in significant occurrences of lithium-rich K-bentonite deposits with economic potential. Detailed...

Ring identification and pattern recognition in ring imaging Cerenkov (RICH) detectors.
Christopher G Lester
Jan 27, 2010
An algorithm for identifying rings in Ring Imaging Cherenkov (RICH) detectors is described. The algorithm is necessarily Bayesian and makes use of a Metropolis- Hastings Markov chain Monte Carlo sampler to locate the rings. In...
Bi(OTf)<sub>3</sub>-catalysed prenylation of electron-rich aryl ethers and phenols with isoprene
Electron-rich aryl ethers and phenols react with isoprene (2-methylbuta-1,3-diene) in the presence of catalytic Bi(OTf)(3) at 40 degrees C to afford the corresponding prenylated or 2,2-dimethylchroman products, respectively, in...

Structural insights into the formation and voltage degradation of lithium- and manganese-rich layered oxides.
One major challenge in the field of lithium-ion batteries is to understand the degradation mechanism of high-energy lithium- and manganese-rich layered cathode materials. Although they can deliver 30 % excess capacity compared...

Spirocycles as Rigidified sp3-Rich Scaffolds for a Fragment Collection.
Novel divergent methodology to access sp3-rich spirocyclic fragments is reported. First, a robust modular synthesis of bis-alkene amino ester building blocks was developed. Three different carbocycles and six heterocycles were...

Displacements in the Context of Social Crises in the Oil-Rich Niger-Delta of Nigeria and Oil-Rich Bakassi Peninsula in Cameroon
Oluyemi O Fayomi
Dec 19, 2019
The Niger-Delta constitutes Niger’s “oil belt’ that lies along the Guinea coast of the country. The region sits on top of about 176 trillion cubic feet of gas and about 35.2 billion barrels of oil reserves. It also accommodates...
Connection between nonlinear energy optimization and instantons.
How systems transit between different stable states under external perturbation is an important practical issue. We discuss here how a recently developed energy optimization method for identifying the minimal disturbance...

Catalytic cracking of sterol-rich yeast lipid
Microbial lipids offer a promising feedstock for renewable biofuels. However, one of the major concerns with their conversion from lipids into suitable fuels is the high sterol content of the lipid. This is especially...

Exploring the relationship between pedagogy and physical cultural studies
Emma Rich
Mar 01, 2011
This paper explores how we might better engage with pedagogy as a feature of the growing field of Physical Cultural Studies (Andrews, 2006). It is promulgated that pedagogy and physical culture, as disciplines, may benefit from...

Origin of Life's Building Blocks in Carbon- and Nitrogen-Rich Surface Hydrothermal Vents.
There are two dominant and contrasting classes of origin of life scenarios: those predicting that life emerged in submarine hydrothermal systems, where chemical disequilibrium can provide an energy source for nascent life; and...
