The background induced by radioactive impurities of Tl and Bi in the source of the double beta experiment NEMO-3 has been investigated. New methods of data analysis which decrease the background from the above mentioned contamination are identified. The techniques can also be applied to other double beta decay Preprint submitted to Elsevier Science experiments capable of measuring independently...

Scientiic visualization is rapidly becoming an indispensable tool for presentation of scientiic data. Reaching beyond the indisputable success of presentation of (large) data sets requires among others some form of quan-tiication of the visualization. This together with the possibility to interact with a visualization and to tightly couple it to model calculations are necessary ingredients for ...

This paper presents a new mixed-integer goal programming (MIGP) model for a parallel machine scheduling problem with sequence-dependent setup times and release dates. Two objectives are considered in the model to minimize the total weighted flow time and the total weighted tardiness simultaneously. Due to the com-plexity of the above model and uncertainty involved in real-world scheduling probl...

Multidimensional regularization and interpolation methods are an essential component of seismic data processing. Fourier reconstruction algorithms efficient straightforward to implement. Minimum Weighted Norm Interpolation (MWNI), Anti-Leakage Transform (ALFT), Matching Pursuit (MPFI) examples classical reconstructions techniques for prestack data. MWNI estimates the coefficients that synthesiz...

This article provides information on modern developments in the direction of directed impact cutting surface a diamond-abrasive tool and its contact zone machining processes. For most part, such processing is faced with issues influence diamond tools, including ruling mechanical electrophysical, taking into account defectiveness diamonds that undergo processing, diamonds, thermal modification d...
