Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- This paper is a condensed report on the third year of the Touche lab on argument retrieval held at CLEF 2022. With the goal to foster and support the development of technologies for argument mining and argument analysis, we organized three shared tasks in the third edition of Touche: (a) argument retrieval for controversial topics, where participants retrieve a gist of arguments from a collection of online debates, (b) argument retrieval for comparative questions, where participants retrieve argumentative passages from a generic web crawl, and (c) image retrieval for arguments, where participants retrieve images from a focused web crawl that show support or opposition to some stance.

Nonstandard Errors
- 2024

In: JOURNAL OF FINANCE. - : Wiley-Blackwell. - 0022-1082 .- 1540-6261. ; 79:3, s. 2339-2390

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- In statistics, samples are drawn from a population in a data-generating process (DGP). Standard errors measure the uncertainty in estimates of population parameters. In science, evidence is generated to test hypotheses in an evidence-generating process (EGP). We claim that EGP variation across researchers adds uncertainty-nonstandard errors (NSEs). We study NSEs by letting 164 teams test the same hypotheses on the same data. NSEs turn out to be sizable, but smaller for more reproducible or higher rated research. Adding peer-review stages reduces NSEs. We further find that this type of uncertainty is underestimated by participants.

Commissioning of the ATLAS Muon Spectrometer with cosmic rays
- 2010
-
In: European Physical Journal C. Particles and Fields. - : Springer Science and Business Media LLC. - 1434-6044 .- 1434-6052. ; 70:3, s. 875-916

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider has collected several hundred million cosmic ray events during 2008 and 2009. These data were used to commission the Muon Spectrometer and to study the performance of the trigger and tracking chambers, their alignment, the detector control system, the data acquisition and the analysis programs. We present the performance in the relevant parameters that determine the quality of the muon measurement. We discuss the single element efficiency, resolution and noise rates, the calibration method of the detector response and of the alignment system, the track reconstruction efficiency and the momentum measurement. The results show that the detector is close to the design performance and that the Muon Spectrometer is ready to detect muons produced in high energy proton-proton collisions.

Readiness of the ATLAS Tile Calorimeter for LHC collisions
- 2010
-
In: European Physical Journal C. Particles and Fields. - : Springer Science and Business Media LLC. - 1434-6044 .- 1434-6052. ; 70:4, s. 1193-1236
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The Tile hadronic calorimeter of the ATLAS detector has undergone extensive testing in the experimental hall since its installation in late 2005. The readout, control and calibration systems have been fully operational since 2007 and the detector has successfully collected data from the LHC single beams in 2008 and first collisions in 2009. This paper gives an overview of the Tile Calorimeter performance as measured using random triggers, calibration data, data from cosmic ray muons and single beam data. The detector operation status, noise characteristics and performance of the calibration systems are presented, as well as the validation of the timing and energy calibration carried out with minimum ionising cosmic ray muons data. The calibration systems' precision is well below the design value of 1%. The determination of the global energy scale was performed with an uncertainty of 4%.

The ATLAS Inner Detector commissioning and calibration
- 2010
-
In: European Physical Journal C. Particles and Fields. - : Springer Science and Business Media LLC. - 1434-6044 .- 1434-6052. ; 70:3, s. 787-821
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The ATLAS Inner Detector is a composite tracking system consisting of silicon pixels, silicon strips and straw tubes in a 2 T magnetic field. Its installation was completed in August 2008 and the detector took part in data-taking with single LHC beams and cosmic rays. The initial detector operation, hardware commissioning and in-situ calibrations are described. Tracking performance has been measured with 7.6 million cosmic-ray events, collected using a tracking trigger and reconstructed with modular pattern-recognition and fitting software. The intrinsic hit efficiency and tracking trigger efficiencies are close to 100%. Lorentz angle measurements for both electrons and holes, specific energy-loss calibration and transition radiation turn-on measurements have been performed. Different alignment techniques have been used to reconstruct the detector geometry. After the initial alignment, a transverse impact parameter resolution of 22.1 +/- 0.9 mu m and a relative momentum resolution sigma (p) /p=(4.83 +/- 0.16)x10(-4) GeV(-1)xp (T) have been measured for high momentum tracks.

The ATLAS Simulation Infrastructure
- 2010
-
In: European Physical Journal C. Particles and Fields. - : Springer Science and Business Media LLC. - 1434-6044 .- 1434-6052. ; 70:3, s. 823-874
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The simulation software for the ATLAS Experiment at the Large Hadron Collider is being used for large-scale production of events on the LHC Computing Grid. This simulation requires many components, from the generators that simulate particle collisions, through packages simulating the response of the various detectors and triggers. All of these components come together under the ATLAS simulation infrastructure. In this paper, that infrastructure is discussed, including that supporting the detector description, interfacing the event generation, and combining the GEANT4 simulation of the response of the individual detectors. Also described are the tools allowing the software validation, performance testing, and the validation of the simulated output against known physics processes.

Stability and magnetism of FeN high-pressure phases
- 2019
-
In: Physical Chemistry, Chemical Physics - PCCP. - : Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC). - 1463-9076 .- 1463-9084. ; 21:9, s. 5262-5273

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Most of the experimentally discovered compounds in the iron-nitrogen system belong to the low concentration part of the Fe-N phase diagram. In our paper, which is based on ab initio calculations, we have studied the formation and stability of high-pressure iron mono-nitride phases, and in particular a new magnetic phase with a NiAs-type structure. We have investigated the role of dynamic, thermodynamic and electronic properties, such as electronic correlations and pressure-induced phase stabilisation. Additionally, we have demonstrated that the new hexagonal FeN phase is stable over a wide range of external pressures and can persist at zero pressure as a metastable phase. Further, we have shown that this phase has a relatively low Curie temperature and may possess non-collinear magnetism.

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Introduction: It is important to decrease light and heavy impurities influxes towards the plasma volume during the high temperature plasma experiments in fusion devices. This is why the conditioning of the wall inner vacuum surfaces is a basic part of the fusion device operation.Problem Statement: The conventional inner vacuum chamber surface conditioning methods has a significant drawback: sputtering materials in a vacuum chamber. The inner vacuum surfaces can be also conditioned with radio-frequency (RF) discharge plasma, but the conditioning effectiveness is limited by low ion energy.Purpose: The purpose of this research is to develop vacuum surface conditioning technology by the radio frequency plasma combined with DC discharge.Materials and Methods: The noncontact passive method of optical plasma spectroscopy has been used to estimate ion plasma composition. The stainless steel outgassing has been determined in situ with the thermodesorption probe method. The sputtering of the samples has been measured with the weight loss method.Results: The studies of combined discharge have shown that: the anode voltage of combined discharge is lower than in case of the glow discharge; the stainless steel 12Kh18N10T erosion coefficient is about 1.5 times less in the case of combined discharge than in the glow one; the thermal desorption diagnostic of wall conditions in the DSM-1 experimental device has shown better efficiency with the combined discharge as compared with the glow discharge. The proposed technology is an original one and has no analogs.Conclusions: The reported research results have shown good prospects for the combined discharge usage for plasma walls conditioning and opportunities for using the combined discharge technology for big fusion machines.
