CUPID-Mo is a cryogenic detector array designed to search for neutrinoless double-beta decay ($0\nu\beta\beta$) of $^{100}$Mo. It uses 20 scintillating $^{100}$Mo-enriched Li$_2$MoO$_4$ bolometers instrumented with Ge light detectors to perform active suppression of $\alpha$ backgrounds, drastically reducing the expected background in the $0\nu\bet...

The Super Dual Radar Network (SuperDARN) is an international high-frequency (HF) radar network used to study plasma convection in the upper atmosphere. An agile SuperDARN radar (AgileDARN radar) was deployed to join the network in Jiamusi, China. The AgileDARN radar is a digital phased array radar equipped with an field-programmable gate array (FPG...

Partial least square (PLS) analysis is the most favourite tool in chemometrics to develop calibration models. PLS technique allows us to decipher even the complex systems by analysing all the variables instead of looking at them one at a time. PLS technique not only capture the maximum variation associated with predictor (i.e. spectra) and predicte...
Zaradi vse večje konkurenčnosti na trgu števcev električne energije, se vse več podjetij prizadeva za zmanjšanje cen proizvodnje in tudi sestavnega materiala števca. Pri podjetju Iskraemeco d.d. si prizadevajo za čim cenejšo izvedbo merilnega dela, saj analogni del tega doprinese večino stroškov dela in materiala. Novi števec bi tako zmanjšal ceno ...
Gravitational-wave observations became commonplace in Advanced LIGO-Virgo's recently concluded third observing run. 56 non-retracted candidates were identified and publicly announced in near real time. Gravitational waves from binary neutron star mergers, however, remain of special interest since they can be precursors to high-energy astrophysical ...
Block propagation models have been used for years for rockfall hazard assessment. However, the settings of model parameters that guarantee the predictive capabilities of the simulations for a given study site remains a key issue. This research aims at investigating the predictive capabilities of block propagation models after a preliminary calibrat...

We present the calibration strategy for the 20 kton liquid scintillator central detector of the Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO). By utilizing a comprehensive multiple-source and multiple-positional calibration program, in combination with a novel dual calorimetry technique exploiting two independent photosensors and readout systems...
Accurate cosmological parameter estimates using polarization data of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) put stringent requirements on map calibration, as highlighted in the recent results from the Planck satellite. In this paper, we point out that a model-dependent determination of polarization calibration can be achieved by the joint fit of the...
Advanced Virgo end benches were a significant source of scattered light noise during the third observing run that lasted from April 1 2019 until March 27 2020. We describe how that noise could be subtracted using auxiliary channels during the online strain data reconstruction. We model in detail the scattered light noise coupling and demonstrate th...
