Hadron production measurements for neutrino physics
Dr. Nilay Bostan; University of Notre Dame, on behalf of NA61/SHINE and EMPHATIC experiments
The determination of the accurate neutrino flux is very important for the accelerator-based neutrino experiments to understand the neutrino interactions and neutrino oscillation measurements. In these experiments, highly energetic (120 GeV) protons interact with a nuclear target to produce mesons, predominantly pions, and kaons that decay to a…

Static Structure Factor S(k) in a Dusty Plasma Experiment
Mr. Vitaliy Zhuravlyov
Abstract: The static structure factor S(k), like a diffraction pattern, is an inverse measure of the arrangement of atoms, or particles in a plasma. Among other things, S(k) reflects thermal variations of number density. For this purpose, we use a ratio H, the hyperuniformity index. Using data from experiment and simulation, I will show that our dusty plasma can achieve the smallest value of H in the literature…
