SuperFGD prototype time resolution studies

The SuperFGD will be a part of the ND280 near detector of the T2K and Hyper Kamiokande projects, that will help to reduce systematic uncertainties related with neutrino flux and cross-section modeling. The upgraded ND280 will be able to perform a full exclusive reconstruction of the final state from neutrino-nucleus interactions, including measurem...

Boosted decision trees

Boosted decision trees are a very powerful machine learning technique. After introducing specific concepts of machine learning in the high-energy physics context and describing ways to quantify the performance and training quality of classifiers, decision trees are described. Some of their shortcomings are then mitigated with ensemble learning, usi...

Modular Construction: Recommendations to increase the uptake of 3D modular multi-storey student accommodations based on ...

The housing market in the Netherlands faces two challenges which are the housing shortage and the climate crisis. Modular construction can help solve these challenges due to the many advantages that modular construction has over traditional construction. The advantages that are most related to solving these challenges are the reduced construction t...

Performance evaluation of a laboratory-developed light-initiated chemiluminescence assay for quantification of egg white...

Published in Journal of clinical laboratory analysis

Specific IgE (sIgE) testing has become one of the most important tools for diagnosing IgE-mediated food allergy. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and dot-enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (Dot-ELISA) have been used to measure sIgE in clinical widely. Light-initiated chemiluminescence assay (LICA) is a new method for measuring allergen-sIgE...

Does perceived wellness influence technical-tactical match performance? A study in youth international rugby using parti...

Published in European journal of sport science

The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between matchday wellness status and a technical-tactical performance construct during rugby match-play. One hundred and thirty-three male rugby union players (73 forwards and 60 backs) from five under-18 national squads who participated in the under-18 Six Nations competition completed a ...

Insulin resistance increases as days on feed advance in feedlot Bos indicus beef cattle offered a high-concentrate finis...

Published in Journal of animal science

This experiment was designed to evaluate the effects of feeding a high-starch during the feedlot phase (108 d) on performance, inflammatory markers, and insulin resistance of Bos indicus bulls. As feeding period increased, performance of the animals was reduced, whereas inflammatory markers were positively correlated with days on feed. Moreover, in...

Influence of dietary supplementation of marigold flower powder and extract (Calendula officinalis L.) on performance, nu...

Published in Journal of animal physiology and animal nutrition

This study aimed to investigate the effects of Marigold flower powder (MFP) and marigold flower extract (MFEx) as feed additives on the performance, blood parameters, antioxidant capacity, immunological parameters, microbial content, digestive enzymes and digestibility in growing Japanese quail. A total number of 350 birds randomly distributed into...
