Abstract We present the technical details on how large-scale structure (LSS) catalogs are constructed from redshifts measured spectra observed by Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI). The LSS provide information needed to determine relative number density of DESI tracers as a function redshift and celestial coordinates and, e.g., clustering statistics. produce that weighted subsamples data, each matched `random' catalog forms an unclustered sampling probability could have those data...

We describe the concept and procedure of drifted-charge extraction developed in MicroBooNE experiment, a single-phase liquid argon time projection chamber (LArTPC). This technique converts raw digitized TPC waveform to number ionization electrons passing through wire plane at given time. A robust recovery from both induction collection anode planes will augment 3D reconstruction, is particularly important for tomographic reconstruction algorithms. building blocks overall are described.

The algorithms studied include classification single particle images, localization and neutrino interactions in an image, detection simulated event overlaid with cosmic ray backgrounds taken real detector data. These demonstrate potential for identification or on interactions. also address technical issues that arise when applying...

We describe fully-automated algorithm developed reconstruct electrons, which a sample...
Federated learning (FL) is a decentralized machine (ML) method that enables model training while preserving privacy. FL gaining attention because it avoids data transfer to the server, facilitating of traditional ML model.

We discuss a technique for measuring charged particle's momentum by means of multiple Coulomb scattering (MCS) in the MicroBooNE liquid argon time projection chamber (LArTPC). This method does not require full particle ionization track to be contained inside detector volume as other reconstruction methods do (range-based and calorimetric reconstruction). motivate use this technique, describe tuning underlying phenomenological formula, quantify its performance on fully beam-neutrino-induced...

These were collected 2016 Fermilab Booster Neutrino Beam, which has an average energy $$800~\hbox {MeV}$$...
Federated learning (FL) that can train using machine methods without moving data have attracted interest owing to the focus on privacy. Several FL platforms and frameworks are being developed with various open datasets. However, has not yet been fully utilized in real-world projects; instead, centralized ML models still used for AI. Since is composed of numerous clients executed, it necessary manage lifecycle such as model deployment status management multiple order operate FL. This study...
Scintillation light produced in liquid argon (LAr) must be shifted from 128 nm to visible wavelengths detection systems used for time-projection chambers (LArTPCs). To date, LArTPC collection have employed tetraphenyl butadiene (TPB) coatings on photomultiplier tubes (PMTs) or plates placed front of the PMTs. Recently, a new approach using TPB-coated guides was proposed. In this paper, we report with improved attenuation lengths above 100 cm when measured air. This is an important step...

This is a summary of an online discussion hosted by the IATEFL Young Learners Special Interest Group (SIG) in February 2007. Writing not so much neglected primary classrooms as noticed and adequately prepared for. It tends to take on great deal significance at later stages secondary education when it increasingly used main vehicle for assessment or demonstration learning. The term ‘writing’ was seen ambiguous argued that teachers need define way they use consider whether are concerned with:...
We present a model for the Global Quantum Efficiency (GQE) of MicroBooNE optical units. An unit consists flat, circular acrylic plate, coated with tetraphenyl butadiene (TPB), positioned near photocathode 20.2-cm diameter photomultiplier tube. The plate converts ultra-violet scintillation photons from liquid argon into visible-spectrum to which cryogenic phototubes are sensitive. GQE is convolution efficiency plates that convert 128 nm light visible light, shifted reach photocathode, and...
The MicroBooNE detector uses scintillation light from particle interactions in liquid argon as a data acquisition trigger. This has wavelengths the vacuum ultra violet (VUV) range, and must be converted into visible to detected by photomultiplier tubes (PMTs). To convert light, wavelength shifting plates coated with Tetraphenyl butadiene (TPB) placed front of its PMTs. While basic tuning this plate-PMT system is sufficient for triggering, precise calibration makes additional calorimetry...
