Heavy flavor electron $R_{dA}$ 60-88% $d$+Au collisions. The nuclear modification factor, $R_{dA}$, for electrons from open heavy flavor decays, for the (a) most central and (b) most peripheral centrality bins.

Heavy flavor electron RdA 0-20% $d$+Au collisions. The nuclear modification factor, $R_{dA}$, for electrons from open heavy flavor decays, for the (a) most central and (b) most peripheral centrality bins.

Heavy flavor electron $R_{dA}$ 20-40% $d$+Au collisions. The nuclear modification factor, $R_{dA}$, for electrons from open heavy flavor decays, for the (a) most central and (b) most peripheral centrality bins.

Heavy flavor electron $R_{dA}$ 0-100% d+Au collisions. The nuclear modification factors $R_{dA}$ and $R_{AA}$ for minimum bias $d$+Au and Au+Au collisions, for the $\pi^{0}$ and $e^{\pm}_{HF}$. The two boxes on the right side of the plot represent the global uncertainties in the $d$+Au (left) and Au+Au (right) values of $N_{coll}$ . An additional common global scaling uncertainty of 9.7% on $R_{dA}$ and $R_{AA}$ from the $p+p$ reference data is omitted for clarity.

Heavy flavor electron yield, $d$+Au $\implies$ CHARGED X. Electrons from heavy flavor decays, separated by centrality. The lines represent a fit to the previous $p+p$ result [23], scaled by $N_{coll}$. The inset shows the ratio of photonic background electrons determined by the converter and cocktail methods for Minimum Bias $d$+Au collisions, with error bars (boxes) that represent the statistical uncertainty on the converter data (systematic uncertainty on the photonic-electron cocktail).

Heavy flavor electron $R_{dA}$ 40-60% $d$+Au collisions. The nuclear modification factor, $R_{dA}$, for electrons from open heavy flavor decays, for the (a) most central and (b) most peripheral centrality bins.

FPGA based digital lock-in amplifier for fNIRS systems
2018
Lock-In Amplifiers (LIA) represent a powerful technique helping to improve signals detectability when low signal to noise ratios are experienced. Continuous Wave functional Near Infrared Spectroscopy (CW-fNIRS) systems for e-health applications usually suffer of poor detection due to the presence of strong attenuations of the optical recovering path and therefore small signals are severely dipped in a high noise floor. In this work a digital LIA system, implemented on a Zynq® Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA), has been designed and tested to verify the quality of the developed solution, when applied in fNIRS systems. Experimental results have shown the goodness of the proposed solutions.
Charge breeding at GANIL: Improvements, results, and comparison with the other facilities
2019
International audience; The 1+/n+ method, based on an ECRIS charge breeder (CB) originally developed at the LPSC laboratory, is now implemented at GANIL for the production of Radioactive Ion Beams (RIBs). Prior to its installation in the middle of the low energy beam line of the SPIRAL1 facility, the 1+/n+ system CB has been modified based on the experiments performed on the CARIBU Facility at Argone National Laboratory. Later, it has been tested at the 1+/n+ LPSC test bench to validate its operation performances. Charge breeding efficiencies as well as charge breeding times have been measured for noble gases and alkali elements. The commissioning phase started at GANIL in the second half-y…
Ocean Acidification and the End-Permian Mass Extinction: To What Extent does Evidence Support Hypothesis?
2012
International audience; Ocean acidification in modern oceans is linked to rapid increase in atmospheric CO 2 , raising concern about marine diversity, food security and ecosystem services. Proxy evidence for acidification during past crises may help predict future change, but three issues limit confidence of comparisons between modern and ancient ocean acidification, illustrated from the end-Permian extinction, 252 million years ago: (1) problems with evidence for ocean acidification preserved in sedimentary rocks, where proposed marine dissolution surfaces may be subaerial. Sedimentary evidence that the extinction was partly due to ocean acidification is therefore inconclusive; (2) Fossils…
