We present the first data release of MaNGA-ARO Survey CO Targets (MASCOT), an ESO Public Spectroscopic conducted at Arizona Radio Observatory (ARO). measure CO(1-0) line emission in a sample 187 nearby galaxies selected from Mapping Nearby Galaxies Apache Point (MaNGA) survey that has obtained integral field unit (IFU) spectroscopy for ~ 10,000 low redshift. The main goal MASCOT is to probe mol...

In this paper, optimal sizing of a photovoltaic (PV) pumping system with water storage tank (WST) is developed to meet the demand minimize life cycle cost (LCC) and satisfy probability interrupted (pIW) constraint considering real region data. The component sizing, including PV resources WST, determined optimally based on LCC pIW using new meta-heuristic method named enhanced artificial rabbits...

Nuclear core simulators based upon few-group nodal diffusion method currently are widely used to predict light water reactor behavior. Nodal parameters’ input, e.g. cross-sections, discontinuity factors, and pin form typically generated utilizing lattice physics codes. In doing so, a number of approximations introduced related using zero current boundary conditions, 2-D radial geometry, uniform...

Pump frequency noise coupling into a microcavity by thermo-optic locking Report Title As thermo-optic locking is widely used to establish a stable frequency detuning between an external laser and a high Q microcavity, it is important to understand how this method affects microcavity temperature and frequency fluctuations. A theoretical analysis of the laser-microcavity frequency fluctuations is...

Separated Component-Based Restoration of Speckled SAR Images Report Title Many coherent imaging modalities such as Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) suffer from a multiplicative noise commonly referred to as speckle which often makes the interpretation of data difficult. An effective strategy for speckle reduction is to use a dictionary that can sparsely represent the features in the speckled imag...
