Antihydrogen accumulation for fundamental symmetry tests

Shirit Cohen

Antihydrogen, a positron bound to an antiproton, is the simplest anti-atom. Its structure and properties are expected to mirror those of the hydrogen atom. Prospects for precision comparisons of the two, as tests of fundamental symmetries, are driving a vi ...

An Integrated Microfluidic Device For C-Elegans Early Embryogenesis Studies And Drug Assays

Martinus Adela Maria Gijs, Pierre Gönczy, Thomas Lehnert, Matteo Cornaglia, Li Dong, Radek Jankele

The Caenorhabditis elegans embryo is a widely used model for the functional analysis of dynamic cellular processes, such as chromosome segregation, cytokinesis or lineage analysis. However, the conventional embryo preparation method that relies on manually ...

LEAP: Looking beyond pixels with continuous-space EstimAtion of Point sources

Martin Vetterli, Thierry Blu, Paul Hurley, Matthieu Martin Jean-André Simeoni, Hanjie Pan

Context. Two main classes of imaging algorithms have emerged in radio interferometry: the CLEAN algorithm and its multiple variants, and compressed-sensing inspired methods. They are both discrete in nature, and estimate source locations and intensities on ...

CFSpro: ray tracing for design and optimization of complex fenestration systems using mixed dimensionality approach

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Andreas Schueler, André Gabriel Kostro, Mario Geiger

Advanced optical ray tracing software, CFSpro, was developed for the study and optimization of complex fenestration systems (CFSs). Using an algorithm mixing 2D and 3D approaches, accurate computation of large numbers of rays in extruded geometries can be ...

The Seamless Peer and Cloud Evolution Framework

Dario Floreano, Joshua Evan Auerbach, Giovanni Iacca

Evolutionary algorithms are increasingly being applied to problems that are too computationally expensive to run on a single personal computer due to costly fitness function evaluations and/or large numbers of fitness evaluations. Here, we introduce the Se ...

Biokinetic Model Identification via Extents of Reaction

Dominique Bonvin, Julien Léo Billeter, Sriniketh Srinivasan

Model structure selection and parameter identification for biokinetic modeling of biological wastewater treatment processes is broadly accepted to be a complicated task. Contributing factors include (i) nonlinear behavior, (ii) lack of knowledge, (iii) lac ...

Deep optical spectroscopy of extended Ly alpha emission around three radio-quiet z=4.5 quasars

Frédéric Courbin, Pierre North, Alexander Patrick Eigenbrod

We report the first results of a spectroscopic search for Ly alpha envelopes around three z similar to 4.5 radio-quiet quasars. Our observational strategy adopts the FORS2 spectrograph mounted to the UT1 of the Very Large Telescope (VLT) in the multi-slit ...

Multi-Modal Optical Imaging of the Cerebellum in Animals

Graham Knott

Thanks to their flexibility, optical techniques could be the key to explore anatomy, plasticity, and functionality of the cerebellum. As an example, an in vivo analysis of the dynamic remodeling of cerebellar axons by nonlinear microscopy can provide funda ...
