Abstract With very few exceptions, the large amount of available experimental bounds on heavy neutral leptons – HNL have been derived relying assumption existence a single (usually Majorana) sterile fermion state that mixes with only one lepton flavour. However, most extensions Standard Model involving fermions predict several HNLs, complex mixing patterns to all flavours. Consequently, for HNL...

Laser Shock Peening with (LSP) and without protective coating (LPwC) was applied to sensitized AA5083 followed by electrochemical analysis. Potentiodynamic tests indicated a region of increased passivity for the LPwC samples lower corrosion current. Similarly, significantly reduced intergranular rate observed during potentiostatic polarization after treatment while LSP showed only negligible im...

Timbre is a major cue for the human auditory system to recognize musical sounds. Timbral patterns can be decomposed in the widely used spectral envelope and the less considered temporal dynamics. In this paper, we present new temporal dynamics similarity measures, which will prove valuable for the recognition of timbral patterns. These similarity measures are evaluated, first alone, then in con...
