ON RELATIVISTIC DISK SPECTROSCOPY IN COMPACT OBJECTS WITH X-RAY CCD CAMERAS by Miller, J. M., D'Ai, A., Bhattacharyya, S., Burrows, David N., Cackett, E. M., Fabian, Andrew C., Freyberg, M. J., Haberl, F., Kennea, Jamie A., Reis, R. C., Strohmayer, T. E., Tsujimoto, M., Nowak, Michael A., Bautz, Marshall W.

“…One drawback of X-ray CCDs is that spectra can be distorted by photon "pile-up," wherein two or more photons may be registered as a single event during one frame time. …”

NIM: A Game-Playing Program by Papert, Seymour A., Solomon, Cynthia

“…The project is to write a program to play a simple game ("one-pile NIM" or "21") as invincibly as possible. We developed the project for a class of seventh grader children we taught in 1968-69 at the Muzzey Junior High School in Lexington, Massachusetts. …”

Picking Parts out of a Bin by Horn, Berthold K.P., Ikeuchi, Katsushi

“…Here we show how results in machine vision provide techniques for automatically directing a mechanical manipulator to pick one object at a time out of a pile. The attitude of the object to be picked up is determined using a histogram of the orientations of visible surface patches. …”

Initial experimental evaluation of crud-resistant materials for light water reactors by Dumnernchanvanit, Ittinop, Zhang, N.Q., Robertson, Sean Gunn, Delmore, Alexandra R., Carlson, M.B., Hussey, D., Short, Michael Philip

“…The loop testing results roughly agree with the London dispersion component of van der Waals force predictions, suggesting that they contribute most significantly to the adhesion of crud to fuel cladding in out-of-pile conditions. These results motivate a new look at ways of reducing crud, thus avoiding many expensive LWR operational issues.…”

Tracking down hyper-boosted top quarks by Maltoni, Fabio, Selvaggi, Michele, Larkoski, Andrew

“…In addition, at the high energy and luminosity projected at a future hadron collider, there will be numerous sources for contamination including initial- and final-state radiation, underlying event, or pile-up which must be mitigated. We propose a simple strategy to tag such “hyper-boosted” objects that defines jets with radii that scale inversely proportional to their transverse boost and combines the standard calorimetric information with charged track-based observables. …”

NuSTAR SPECTROSCOPY OF GRS 1915+105: DISK REFLECTION, SPIN, AND CONNECTIONS TO JETS by Miller, J. M., Parker, M.

L., Stern, D. K., Tomsick, J. A., Walton, D. J., Zhang, W. W., Chakrabarty, Deepto

“…The 3-79 keV bandpass of NuSTAR, and its ability to obtain moderate-resolution spectra free from distortions such as photon pile-up, are extremely well suited to studies of disk reflection in X-ray binaries. …”

Power counting to better jet observables by Larkoski, Andrew, Moult, Ian James, Neill, Duff Austin

“…Power counting can also be used to understand effects of phase space cuts and the effect of contamination from pile-up, which we discuss. As these arguments rely only on the parametric scaling of QCD, the predictions from power counting must be reproduced by any Monte Carlo, which we verify using Pythia 8 and Herwig++. …”
