This paper presents an analysis of the material recovery system for leaded glass from cathode ray tubes (CRTs) using a dynamic material flow analysis. In particular, the global mass flow of primary and secondary CRT glass and the theoretical capacities for using secondary CRT glass to make new CRT glass are analyzed. The global mass flow analysis indicates that the amount of new glass required ...

Accurate color reproduction of images presented on a computer-controlled CRT display as projected 35mm transparencies is a complicated procedure requiring the characterization and control of several imaging processes and application of appropriate color-appearance modeling to account for the changes in viewing conditions. This paper reviews a process for image-recorder characterization, project...

[1] We have observed intensity scintillation (IPS) of the radio source 0854 + 201 at 8 GHz on August 2, 2000 during the passage of a coronal mass ejection (CME) across the line of sight. The source was at a distance of 10 R over the north solar pole. Simultaneous observations with the LASCO C3 instrument allow us to model the mean density Ne and the microscale density fluctuations dNewithin the...

Details are presented of a method to resolve close tracks in cathode strip chambers based on the t to the induced charge distribution. The analysis of muon beam test data demonstrated a double track resolution of about 2 mm for a readout pitch of 5 mm. The degradation of the position resolution in presence of a close track is limited to 10% of the readout pitch.

We report the results of a meta-study of 118 Cognitive Reflection Test studies comprising of 44,558 participants across 21 countries. There is a negative correlation between being female and the overall, and individual, correct answers to CRT questions. Taking the test at the end of an experiment negatively impacts performance. Monetary incentives do not impact performance. Overall students per...

I design an experiment to interpret the observed Lk behavior. It distinguishes between the “Lkb” players, who have high ability and best respond to Lk belief, and the “Lka” players, who could use, at most, k steps of reasoning, and thus could not respond to L(k+1) or higherorder belief. The separation utilizes a combination of simultaneous and sequential ring games. In the sequential games it r...

Theorem 1 (Main Theorem, [1]). Let X be a linear dispersion STBC. There are nt transmit and nr receive antennas. The channel matrix is H ∈ Crt . The received signal is decoded using the PIC group decoding with a grouping scheme {I0, I1, . . . , IN−1}. The equivalent channel is G(h), where h = vec(H ) = {h0, h1, . . . , hnr·nt−1} ∈ Crt . Then, each of the following dimension-reduced systems (i.e...

A method for creating and presenting video-recorded synchronized audiovisual stimuli at a high frame rate-which would be highly useful for psychophysical studies on, for example, just-noticeable differences and gating-is presented. Methods for accomplishing this include recording audio and video separately using an exact synchronization signal, editing the recordings and finding exact synchroni...
