The project concerns uncertainty reduction of parameters of a thermodynamic equation of state for a dense gas, using Bayesian inference. The dense gas considered is D6 siloxane and the equation of state used is the polytropic van der Waals equation. The shock tube data comes from ...
The CMS Hadron Calorimeter in the barrel, endcap and forward regions is fully commissioned. Cosmic ray data were taken with and without magnetic field at the surface hall and after installation in the experimental hall, hundred meters underground. Various measurements were also p ...
Commissioning studies of the CMS hadron calorimeter have identified sporadic uncharacteristic noise and a small number of malfunctioning calorimeter channels. Algorithms have been developed to identify and address these problems in the data. The methods have been tested on cosmic ...
