Measuring the fall of antihydrogen: The AEGIS experiment at CERN
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2011 , Conference Paper)
Considerable efforts have been made and are still being made to verify the validity of the principle of the equivalence of gravitational and inertial mass, one of the cornerstones of the classical theory of general relativity. ...
Integration of Captivate and JOOMLA: Online demonstration and assessment elearning resources
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. (IEEE)
, 2010 , Conference Paper)
The system uses Adobe Captivate [1] to create and generate the learning and assessments materials in PDF format to allow students to access the learning materials and to do the assessment interactively. Each assessment is ...
The many benefits of annotator rationales for relevance judgments
(

, 2017 , Conference Paper)
When collecting subjective human ratings of items, it can be difficult to measure and enforce data quality due to task subjectivity and lack of insight into how judges arrive at each rating decision. To address this, we ...
Model for oscillations in the guidance of ions through insulating nanocapillaries
(
IOP Publishing
, 2011 , Conference Paper)
The pre-equilibrium period of the ion guiding through insulating nanocapillaries is characterized by the production of temporary charge patches inside the capillaries. The dynamics of the charge patch creation is revealed ...
Recycling low grade waste heat to electricity

Creating comfortable urban built environments is a challenging endeavour in Qatar, due to the rapid development and the prevailing extremely hot climatic conditions. High-rise buildings glazed envelopes and concrete masses ...
Centrifugal Compressor Spiral Dry Gas Seal Simulation Working at Reverse Rotation
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2013 , Conference Paper)
Unidirectional dry gas seal may experiences reverse rotation when equipped in a centrifugal compressor. This paper describes how the reverse rotation effects on the spiral unidirectional dry gas seal performance and pressure ...
Ion impact induced ionization/fragmentation dynamics of rare gas Dimers
(
IOP Publishing
, 2013 , Conference Paper)
We have measured the ionization and fragmentation of Helium, Neon and Argon Dimers induced by ion impact and observed two different pathways, the sequential ionization on each atom and the interatomic Cou-lombic decay. © ...
Proposed cooling wall system: A lesson from nature
(
ISEC Press
