The Horizon-T cosmic ray experiment
No full textHorizon-T experiment is deployed at the Tien Shan High-Altitude Scientific Station of the Lebedev Physical Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences located at an altitude of 3340 m above sea level near the city of Almaty (Republic of Kazakhstan). The experiment is aimed at studying the temporal structure of Extensive Air Showers (EAS) from primary cosmic rays with energies above 1016eV, as well as studying delayed particles from the main shower front.Horizon-T consists of 10 detection points spaced up to 1400 m from each other and tied to a common center. The EAS-induced signals from all the detectors are transmitted via high-frequency cables to the central point and digitized with a resolution of 2 ns. This paper presents the physical justification, technical description, and calibration of the components of the experiment

Closing the loop on a continuous program improvement process
No full textThe WebBSIT, a Bachelor of Science in Information Technology, is a fully online degree offered through a consortium of five University System of Georgia institutions. This paper begins by summarizing the change management system developed for continuous program improvement. Analysis of data should
drive improvement, closing the loop. The balance of this paper presents an outline for stakeholder participation, describing critical checkpoints in the process that must occur to close the loop on closing the loop

A hands-on approach to teaching the financial concept of diversification
No full textIn this article we apply R, a free software, and recent stock-price data to illustrate the portfolio diversification concept, a corner stone of modern finance theory. Currently, recent stock-price data are available on the internet at no cost to users. By using current market data to construct realistic and authentic examples, student engagement can be improved in classroom discussions. However, to focus on learning the finance concepts, the process of accessing the data and applying the statistical software must be user friendly and learner centered. In this article we demonstrate that this can be achieved. We use Shiny – an R package – to provide a user-friendly dashboard that could make the process interactive and easy to use. The proposed tool, when used as a supplement to existing resources, could promote self-discovery and sustain student interest. We also provide the computer code we used for obtaining the results discussed in the article
