A touch of the mouse positions the mouse pointer at the current gaze position of the user. Thus, the pointer is always at the position where the user expects it on the screen. This approach changes the user experience in tasks that include frequent switc...

Neutrino oscillations : what is magic about the “ magic ” baseline ?

Physics interpretation of the " magic " baseline, L magic , that can play important role in future oscillation experiments is given. The " magic " baseline coincides with the refraction length, l 0. The latter, in turn, approximately equals the oscillation length in matter at high energies. Therefore at the baseline L = l 0 the oscillation phase is 2π, and consequently, the " solar " amplitude ...
