John Barton was one of the experimental founders of particle astrophysics, working in deep underground locations all over the world. This note combines the obituary published in The Independent with a complete list of his publications....
The AMIDAS website has been established as an online interactive tool for running simulations and analyzing data in direct Dark Matter detection experiments. At the first phase of the website building, only some commonly used WIMP velocity distribu...
We present a study of the resonant structure of the decay $D^0 \to K_{\rm L}^0π^+π^-$, using quantum-correlated $D^0\bar{D}^0$ data produced at $\sqrt{s}=3.773$ GeV. The data sample was collected by the BESIII experiment and corresponds to an integ...
A search for $K_{\mathrm{S(L)}}^{0} \rightarrow π^{+}π^{-}μ^{+}μ^{-}$ decays is performed using proton-proton collision data collected by the LHCb experiment at a centre-of-mass energy of $13\,\mathrm{TeV}$, corresponding to an integrated luminos...
The scrape-off layer (SOL) power width (λ_q) is important for predicting the heat load on divertor targets for future magnetically confined devices. Currently, the underlying physics for λ_q scaling is not fully understood. This paper extends the p...
A holmium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet (Ho:YAG) thin-disk was experimentally investigated under Q-switching and cavity-dumping operation schemes, pumped by a 1.9 $μ$m laser-diode (LD). The laser generated pulses at 2090 nm with energies more than 6...
The Hilbert hotel is an old mathematical paradox about sets of infinite numbers. This paradox deals with the accommodation of a new guest in a hotel with an infinite number of occupied rooms. Over the past decade, there have been many attempts to imp...
Previous experiments [M. J. Coleman and A. Ruina, Phys. Rev. Lett. 80, 3658 (1998)] showed that a gravity-powered toy with no control and which has no statically stable near-standing configurations can walk stably. We show here that a simple rigid-...
The axion were proposed as a result to a solution to the Strong CP Problem in quantum chromodynamics (QCD) and is now considered a leading candidate for dark matter. Direct axion dark matter detection experiments are challenging due to the axion's we...
