An analysis of noise in the NOvA near detector
… noise characteristics from the electronics and photosensors used in the near detector of the NOvA experiment. A number of methods for the identification and elimination of noise in the electronics are discussed.

A battery powered near infrared (NIR) camera for the MIT HelioDome
… by using digital cameras as multiple-points photosensors, that cover the visible and near infrared portions of the sunlight spectrum. Two cameras are used in this device: a charge couple device (CCD) camera using silicon detectors and a near infrared (NIR) camera using InGaAs sensors. Both …

A Geant4 Simulation Study Of A Xenon-Doped Liquid Argon, Full-Body, Time-of-Flight Positron Emission Tomography Scanner To Understand Its Performance And Noise Profile
… With a LAr+Xe scintillator and solid-state photosensors, 3Dπ can use the precise TOF info of gamma rays to improve the localization of individual positron annihilations, and as one example benefit, provide low-dose PET scans for patients who may be at high risk for exposure to radiation such …

Structure-function analysis of phototropin receptor kinases
… light perception, plants have evolved a suite of photosensors with differing sensitivities, which in combination provide detailed information regarding light availability and quality. The major photoreceptor families identified in plants include the phytochromes, which are most sensitive to red …

Characterisation and calibration of silicon photomultipliers for next-generation space detectors
… applications, to name a few. They are the new photosensors set to replace the traditional photomultipliers for several next-generation space instruments. Owing to their compact size, low cost, excellent time resolution, and high photon detection efficiency, they are currently the most …

Vielkanal-Femtosekunden- Spektroskopie der Primaerreaktionen von archaebakteriellen Retinalproteinen im sichbaren Spektralbereich
… des Retinals verlaeuft im Fall des Photosensors Sensorrhodopsin II trotz der unterschiedlichen Grundzustandsspektren sehr aehnlich zu Bakteriorhodopsin. Bei Sensorrhodopsin I wurde jedoch eine sehr langsame Rueckreaktion innerhalb einiger Pikosekunden beobachtet, die bei dem …

Burn time measurements of micron sized Al-Mg alloys and Mg in a heterogeneous shock tube in different oxidizing environments
… dependence exists. Results collected from all photosensors gave insight on the combustion mechanism of the free stream particles in the shock tube. Magnesium Burning times were shorter than previously recorded Burning times from different experimental setups. Residence time, isothermal …

Development of reconstruction algorithms for large volume neutrino telescopes and their application to the KM3NeT detector
… crucial. This requires a much denser array of photosensors with adequate containment conditions. First simulations show that with an effective volume of 3 Mton and an observation time of 5 years a significance of 3 sigma (5 sigma) can be achieved if the energy resolution is 25% (10%), assuming …

Structural Features of Bacteriophytochromes. Photoactivated Proteins studied by Serial Femtosecond Crystallography
The key to life on earth is sunlight, which reaches the planet as an energy source. Nature has evolved different types of photoreceptor proteins to detect optimal light conditions for biochemical processes. A type of red light detecting photoreceptor proteins are called phytochromes and are present …
