Effectiveness of Intersection Advanced Driver Assistance Systems in Preventing Crashes and Injuries in Left Turn Across Path / Opposite Direction Crashes in the United States
… braking and driver warning). In addition, two sightline assumptions were modeled for each crash: one where the turning vehicle was visible long before the intersection, and one where the turning vehicle was only visible after entering the intersection. For resimulated crashes which were not …

Probing the Diversity of Fast Radio Bursts with CHIME/FRB
… of an unusual FRB to probe the properties of its sightline. In the latter study, I constrain the electron density content of a diffuse filamentary structure on the outskirts of the Virgo Cluster, demonstrating the power of FRBs as probes of diffuse media.
