Multi-object spectroscopic operations with the Sloan Digital Sky Survey V

Luzius Gregor Kronig, Ricardo Jorge Araùjo Pereira, Loïc Grossen

The Sloan Digital Sky Survey V (SDSS-V) is an all-sky spectroscopic survey of more than 6 million objects, designed to decode the history of the Milky Way, reveal the inner workings of stars, investigate the origin of solar systems, and track the growth of ...

Use of IoT sensing and occupant surveys for determining the resilience of buildings to forest fire generated PM2.5

Dusan Licina

Wildfires and associated emissions of particulate matter pose significant environmental and health concerns. In this study we propose tools to evaluate building resilience to extreme episodes of outdoor particulate matter using a combination of indoor and ...

Application of Association Rules to Determine Building Typological Classes for Seismic Damage Predictions at Regional Scale: The Case Study of Basel

Pierino Lestuzzi, Yves Sylvain Gilles Reuland, Lorenzo Diana

Assessing seismic vulnerability at large scales requires accurate attribution of individual buildings to more general typological classes that are representative of the seismic behavior of the buildings sharing same attributes. One-by-one evaluation of all ...

A deep learning approach to Cadastral Computing

Frédéric Kaplan, Isabella Di Lenardo, Sofia Ares Oliveira, Bastien Solal Emile Tourenc

This article presents a fully automatic pipeline to transform the Napoleonic Cadastres into an information system. The cadastres established during the first years of the 19th century cover a large part of Europe. For many cities they give one of the first ...

Exploiting flux ratio anomalies to probe warm dark matter in future large-scale surveys

Frédéric Courbin, David Richard Harvey, Amélie Tamone, Alexey Boyarsky, Wessel Valkenburg

Flux ratio anomalies in strong gravitationally lensed quasars constitute a unique way to probe the abundance of non-luminous dark matter haloes, and hence the nature of dark matter. In this paper, we identify double-imaged quasars as a statistically effici ...

Modelling structures in cryo-EM maps

Matteo Dal Peraro, Sylvain Träger

Recent advances in structure determination of sub-cellular structures using cryo-electron microscopy and tomography have enabled us to understand their architecture in a more detailed manner and gain insight into their function. The choice of approach to u ...

Findings from a survey on the current use of life-cycle assessment in building design

Marilyne Andersen, Emmanuel Rey, Thomas Bernard Paul Jusselme

The built environment is facing environmental regulations more ambitious than ever before. In Europe, a law will lead all new buildings to the Nearly Zero-Energy performance level. However, even if a building does not have any energy consumption for its op ...

The Pristine survey - I. Mining the Galaxy for the most metal-poor stars

Pascale Jablonka, Nicolas Lawrence Etienne Longeard

We present the Pristine survey, a new narrow-band photometric survey focused on the metallicity-sensitive Ca H&K lines and conducted in the Northern hemisphere with the wide-field imager MegaCam on the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope. This paper reviews our ...
