The use of programmable hardware devices is imperative for digital based pulse shape discrimination (PSD) to differentiate between various types of radiation. This work reports the development of a PSD algorithm based on tail area and total area, eliminating the need for programmable hardware. The pulses were collected using BC501 detector and Pu-Be source from a digitizer in the oscilloscope mode. The algorithm performs crucial functions such as pulse normalization, shaping, identification and removal of multiple peaks and threshold determination. The algorithm provides neutron and γ-ray counts, scatter plot, and FoM. In order to test the efficacy of our proposed algorithm, pulses were collected from a different source-detector setup comprising BC501A detector and an Am-Be source from a digitizer in the oscilloscope mode and Charge Integration (CI) mode. The results obtained from our proposed algorithm and CI method clearly indicates a good agreement in terms of number of neutrons and γ-rays and Figure-of-Merit (FoM), thus providing cost-effective alternative method for neutron and γ-ray discrimination, offering flexibility and accuracy without specialized hardware. © 2023, CC BY.

We develop a model describing long-range atom-atom interactions in a two-dimensional periodic or a-periodic lattice of optical centers inside a solid-state host material. We consider realistic environmental and technical conditions such as frequency and position broadening. Even when considering a significant frequency broadening in the ensemble (∼300 GHz), we observe up to a three-fold increase in directional scattering from the resonant lattice in a system. The model can be used to scalably design quantum optical elements, e.g. a quantum lens, harnessing atomistic engineering (e.g. via ion implantation) of collective interactions in materials to enhance quantum properties. © 2024, CC BY.

Near-infrared spectroscopy has been widely employed in biophotonics to study and quantify the optical properties of biological tissues. Unlike steady-state approaches, time-resolved spectroscopic techniques enable optical absorption and scattering properties of the medium to be separated, allowing for quantitation of depth-dependent absolute tissue optical properties. However, robust analysis of time-resolved signals requires careful consideration of calibration techniques and computational models. Here, we consider the effect of the time window employed when fitting a diffusion theory model to Monte-Carlo simulations. Next, we describe the impact of the temporal position of the instrument response function (IRF) in recovery of the optical properties. Finally, we discuss a technique to analyze time-resolved measurements without knowledge of the timescale of the IRF or the time-resolved measurement byfitting the relative shape of the photons' distribution time-of-flight (DTOF). © 2021 SPIE.

Liquid crystals have proven to provide a versatile experimental and theoretical platform for studying topological objects such as vortices, skyrmions, and hopfions. In parallel, in hard condensed matter physics, the concept of topological phases and topological order has been introduced in the context of spin liquids to investigate emergent phenomena like quantum Hall effects and high-temperature superconductivity. Here, we bridge these two seemingly disparate perspectives on topology in physics. Combining experiments and simulations, we show how topological defects in liquid crystals can be used as versatile building blocks to create complex, highly degenerate topological phases, which we refer to as ‘Combinatorial Vortex Lattices’ (CVLs). CVLs exhibit extensive residual entropy and support locally stable quasi-particle excitations in the form of charge-conserving topological monopoles, which can act as mobile information carriers and be linked via Dirac strings. CLVs can be rewritten and reconfigured on demand, endowed with various symmetries, and modified through laser-induced topological surgery — an essential capability for information storage and retrieval. We demonstrate experimentally the realization, stability, and precise optical manipulation of CVLs, thus opening new avenues for understanding and technologically exploiting higher-hierarchy topology in liquid crystals and other ordered media.

Low Cost Muon Telescope (LOCOMOTE) is a low-cost charged particle detector. Each LOCOMOTE unit includes two pieces of BC408 (2"*2"*1") scintillators, silicon photomultipliers (SiPM), and digital logic circuits. The cost of each LOCOMOTE unit is approximately 200 US dollars and is mainly used as a teaching instrument for high school students in cosmic ray education. Each LOCOMOTE unit can be connected to the network, and data from different units can form a ground array to measure high-energy cosmic ray events. In this report, we present the performance verification of the telescope, including the measurement of cosmic muon angular flux and the feasibility of muon tomography using multiple telescopes. © Copyright owned by the author(s) under the terms of the Creative Commons.

This research aims to analyze the effect of ozone exposure time and lard mixture on the polarization angle of transmission of olive oil. The study uses a transmission polarization method with a laser (λ = 532 nm) as a light source. The research sample in the form of olive oil mixed with lard at a concentration of 10, 20, 40, and 80%, with an ozone exposure time of 0-30 minutes. The sample is subjected to external electric fields with variations from 0-4.5 x 102 kV/m to increase the change's polarization angle. The results showed that the change in polarization angle would change linearly with the increase in lard concentration with olive oil. Olive oil with a low concentration of lard (10%) experienced an increase in the change in polarization angle with a value of 0.31 due to the effect of 90 minutes of ozone exposure. In general, the results of the study showed that increased concentrations of lard, ozone exposure time, electric field strengths caused an increase in changes in the polarization angle in a mixture of olive oil and lard. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.

We study topologically stable defect structures in systems where the defect line classification in three dimensions and associated algebra of interactions (the fundamental group) are governed by the non-Abelian 8-element group, the quaternions Q8. The non-Abelian character of the defect algebra leads to a topological rigidity of bound defect pairs, and trivalent junctions which are the building blocks of multi-junction trivalent networks. We realize such structures laboratory chiral nematics and analyze their behavior analytically, along with numerical modeling © 2024, CC BY.

This paper investigates the concept of Cross Polarization (CP) experiment in addition to revisiting the two potential expansion schemes recently developed in the field of solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (SSNMR): namely, the Floquet-Magnus expansion and the Fer expansion. We use the aforementioned expansion schemes for the calculation of effective Hamiltonians and propagators when the spin system undergoes Cross Polarization radiation. CP is the gateway experiment into SSNMR. An in-depth comprehension of the underlying mechanics of spin dynamics during the cross-polarization experiment is pivotal for further experimental developments and optimization of more complex solid-state NMR experiments. The main contribution of this work is a prospect related to spin physics;particularly regarding to generalization of the calculation. This work reports original yet interesting novel ideas and developments that include calculations performed on the CP experiment. In fact, the approach presented could play a major role in the interpretation of several fine NMR experiments in solids, which would in turn provide significant new insights in spin physics. The generality of the work points towards potential applications in problems related in solid-state NMR and theoretical developments of spectroscopy as well as interdisciplinary research areas as long as they include spin dynamics concepts.
