The recent long-term shutdown of Japanese nuclear reactors has resulted in a significantly reduced reactor ν¯e flux at KamLAND. This running condition provides unique opportunity to confirm and constrain backgrounds for the oscillation analysis. data set also improved sensitivity other signals, particular ν¯e’s produced β-decays from U238 Th232 within Earth’s interior, whose energy spectrum overlaps with that ν¯e’s. Including constraints on θ13 accelerator short-baseline neutrino...
This paper introduces a new approach to measure the muon magnetic moment anomaly |$a_{\mu} = (g-2)/2$| and electric dipole (EDM) |$d_{\mu}$| at J-PARC facility. The goal of our experiment is |$a_{\mu}$| using an independent method with factor 10 lower momentum, 20 smaller diameter storage-ring solenoid compared previous ongoing |$g-2$| experiments unprecedented quality storage field. Additional significant differences from present experimental include 1000 transverse emittance beam...

Emission of muonium (|$\mu ^+e^-$|) atoms from a laser-processed aerogel surface into vacuum was studied for the first time. Laser ablation used to create hole-like regions with diameter about 270 |$\mu $|m in triangular pattern hole separation range 300–500 $|m. The emission probability sample is at least eight times higher than uniform one.
This paper demonstrates real-time short-term traffic flow prediction through distributed fiber-optic sensing (DFOS) and data assimilation with a stochastic cell-automata-based model. Traffic congestion on expressways is severe issue. To alleviate its negative impacts, it necessary to optimize prior becoming serious congestion. For this purpose, promising. However, conventional monitoring apparatus used in methods faces technical issue due the sparsity data. overcome for realizing prediction,...
Currently, hepatitis B virus (HBV) re-infection after liver transplantation (LT) can be almost completely suppressed by the administration of HBV reverse transcriptase inhibitors and immunoglobulins. However, transplantation, there is no indicator replication because tests for serum surface antigen HBV-DNA are both negative. Therefore, criteria reducing discontinuing these precautions unclear. In this study, we examined core-related (HBcrAg) intrahepatic covalently closed circular DNA...
