The exclusive reaction γγ → f f̄γ is considered as the possible calibration process on the linear photon collider. We analyse the energy spectrum and total cross section dependence on the detector parameters at various initial beam helicities. 2 T. V. Shishkina, V. V. Makarenko

BACKGROUND Cross-sectional surveys utilizing biomarkers that test for recent infection provide a convenient and cost effective way to estimate HIV incidence. In particular, the BED assay has been developed for this purpose. Controversy surrounding the way in which false positive results from the biomarker should be handled has lead to a number of different estimators that account for imperfect ...

As early physics programs with the ATLAS detector, we present J/ψ and Υ production cross section and spin alignment measurements, and the strategy for the jet energy calibration.

It is necessary to calibrate SAR data in order to use the data for science applications. When both polarimetric and interferometric data are collected simultaneously, these SAR data can be used for cross-calibration and verification. The frequency of polarimetric and interferometric data does not have to be the same for this purpose. For example, the NASA/JPL AIRSAR system can acquire C-band in...

Four studies created malingering and response bias scales for a new test battery, the Attachment and Clinical Issues Questionnaire (ACIQ). In the first calibration study, a new approach to identifying fake good and fake bad respondents was outlined. In Study 2, this scale was cross validated in a within-subjects design that also found only weak correlations between the scales of the ACIQ and me...

In our recent work, Monte Carlo Cross Validation Stacked Regression (MCCVSR) is proposed to achieve automatic optimization of spectral interval selection in multivariate calibration. Though MCCVSR performs well in normal conditions, it is still necessary to improve it for more general applications. According to the well-known principle of "garbage in, garbage out (GIGO)", as a precise ensemble ...

The technological advancement of the synthetic aperture radar (SAR) principle leads to an innovative challenge for the calibration as well. In order to provide an active reference target for an accurate absolute radiometric calibration the knowledge of the target’s backscattering characteristics is essential. For the recently developed DLR C-band transponder named “Kalibri” several strategies f...
