The Vertex Locator (VELO) is a silicon microstrip detector that surrounds the proton-proton interaction region in LHCb experiment. performance of during first years its physics operation reviewed. system operated vacuum, uses bi-phase CO2 cooling system, and sensors are moved to 7 mm from LHC beam for data taking. stability these characteristic features described, details material budget given. calibration timing processing algorithms implemented FPGAs described. fully characterised. have...
In recent years, there has been a significant transformation in the field of incoherent imaging with new possibilities compressing three-dimensional (3D) information into two-dimensional intensity distribution without two-beam interference (TBI). Most 3D imagers TBI are based on scattering by random phase mask exhibiting sharp autocorrelation and low cross-correlation along depth. Consequently, during reconstruction, high lateral axial resolutions obtained. Imaging requires an astronomical...
The soil carbon (C) saturation concept suggests an upper limit to the storage of organic (SOC). It is set by mechanisms that protect matter from mineralization. Biochar has capacity new C, including rhizodeposits and microbial necromass. However, decadal-scale which biochar influences molecular diversity, spatial heterogeneity, temporal changes in SOC persistence, remain unresolved. Here we show C ceiling a Ferralsol under subtropical pasture was raised second application Eucalyptus saligna...
SALT, a new dedicated readout Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC) for the Upstream Tracker, silicon detector in Large Hadron Collider beauty (LHCb) experiment, has been designed and developed. It is 128-channel chip using an innovative architecture comprising low-power analogue front-end with fast pulse shaping 40 MSps 6-bit Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC) each channel, followed by Digital Signal Processing (DSP) block performing pedestal Mean Common Mode (MCM) subtraction zero...
A focal plane array (FPA) detector was used for hyperspectral imaging in the infrared (IR) spectral region using thermal and synchrotron light sources. FPA Fourier-transform IR (FTIR) microspectroscopy will be able to monitor real time changes at specific absorption bands when combined with high brightness source. In this study, several types of samples unique structural motifs were selected assessing capability FPA-FTIR technique. It shown that required polariscopy wavelengths can...
Abstract The birefringence analysis of thin m SiO 2 films deposited via evaporation at a glancing angle to the normal on resist pillar arrays Si and nanopatterned substrates is carried out by spectral color (red–green–blue [RGB]) imaging modes. Retardance over flat structured regions can be distinguished with only ≈1% difference between neighboring for visible range using RGB numerical images. Michel‐Lévy map used rendering make quantitative measurements filtering. It shown that 530 nm...
Phase imaging of biochemical samples has been demonstrated for the first time at Infrared Microspectroscopy (IRM) beamline Australian Synchrotron using usually discarded Near-IR (NIR) region synchrotron-IR beam. The beam IRM a unique fork shaped intensity distribution as result gold coated extraction mirror shape, which includes central slit rejection intense X-ray resulting configuration makes any task challenging. For imaging, is tightly focused to point on sample plane followed by...
The Beam Gas Vertex (BGV) detector is foreseen as a possible non-invasive beam size measurement instrument for the LHC and its luminosity upgrade. This technique based on reconstruction of beam-gas interaction vertices, where charged particles produced in inelastic interactions are measured with high-precision tracking detectors. design studies expected performance currently developed BGV prototype will be presented an overview given associated vacuum, readout systems. A brief description...
Corrosion of metallic surfaces is prevalent in the environment and great concern many areas, including military, transport, aviation, building food industries, amongst others. Polyester coatings containing both polyester silica nanoparticles (SiO2NPs) have been widely used to protect steel substrata from corrosion. In this study, we utilized X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, attenuated total reflection infrared micro-spectroscopy, water contact angle measurements, optical profiling atomic...
