Dark Matter Tomography
Over cosmic time the small uctuations in dark matter density in the early Universe grew via gravitational instability. Until recently our view of this process has been indirect, relying on radiation from the small baryonic component. If we could measure directly the development of these mass overdensities over a range of scales and look-back times, cosmology and the nature of the dark matter wo...

متن کاملExploiting Shadow Coherence in Ray Tracing
We present a method, based on Haines' shadow caches, for accelerating shadow ray calculations for Tay tracing processes which use spatial subdivision and surface tessellation. Trees of shadow voxel caches, containing references to both objects and voxels, are used to quickly determine whether or not a surface lies in shadow. This method does not require an additional preprocessing stage before ...
متن کاملDeveloping 3 dimensional model for estimation of acoustic power in urban pathways in geo-spatial information system framework
Around the word, traffic growth is causing growing air and noise pollution. Noise levels in a given area are affected by traffic on the streets as well as effective factors, including existing infrastructure and industrial centers, and so on. The purpose of this research is to model and estimate the amount of acoustic emission in the streets of Tehran's third district, using the 3D spatial info...
