Systematic errors in emission cross sections arising in the analysis of laboratory beam measurements.
A technique for obtaining emission cross sections in laboratory beam studies is presented, including effects on the cross section due to polarization of the emitted light. Systematic analytical errors arising from optical problems are analyzed and evaluated for a typical spectral feature. The primary sources of error are shown to arise from the particular geometry used in the optical measuremen...
متن کاملDust-induced Systematic Errors in Ultraviolet-derived Star Formation Rates
Rest-frame far-ultraviolet (FUV) luminosities form the ‘backbone’ of our understanding of star formation at all cosmic epochs. These luminosities are typically corrected for dust by assuming that the tight relationship between the UV spectral slopes (β) and the FUV attenuations (AFUV) of starburst galaxies applies for all starforming galaxies. Data from seven independent UV experiments demonstr...

متن کاملLight Quark Mass Determinations from the Lattice
This paper is a review of recent lattice determinations of the light quark masses. It describes the method employed to calculate quark masses in the lattice formulation, and the extrapolations required to reach the physical regime. This review is designed to be accessible to a general audience, not specifically lattice theorists.
متن کاملData visualizations to detect systematic errors in laboratory assay results
The measurement of concentrations of drugs and endogenous substances is widely used in basic and clinical pharmacology research and service tasks. Using data science-derived visualizations of laboratory data, it is demonstrated on a real-life example that basic statistical exploration of laboratory assay results or advised standard visual methods of data inspection may fall short in detecting s...
