The emission current from dissipation means and lightning arresters as a quality data
No full textThe experimental test results of impulse current characteristics from devices called dissipaters and lightning arresters (air terminals) of different types are considered. the correlation between current flowing through the shunt and voltage between the plates shows that the fixed curve refers to the charge current of the apacitance between plates but not emission current. It is necessary to consider the emission current as the current of streamers that are explicitly visible on oscillogram. The time an dissipater devices and lightning arresters needs to generate the first streamer could reflect it’s efficiency.Розглянуто результати експериментальних досліджень характеристик струму імпульсної корони від пристроїв, які названо розсіювачами, та блискавкоприймачами різноманітних типів. Порівняння між струмом, який протікає скрізь шунт та напругою між плоскостями показує що реєструється струм заряду електричної ємності між плоскостями а не емісійний струм. Показано, що необхідно розглядати емісійний струм як струм стримерів, які добре видно на осцилограмах. Ефективність розсіювачів та блискавкоприймачів може визначатися за часом появи першого стримеру
Comparative evaluation of calcium phosphate-based varnish and resin-modified glass ionomer-based varnish in reducing dentinal hypersensitivity: A randomized controlled clinical trial
No full textABSTRACT
Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of MI varnish and Clinpro XT varnish in reducing dentinal hypersensitivity. Materials and Methods: Patients with cervical dentinal hypersensitivity were selected for the study. The teeth to be tested were isolated. Then, a blast of air and ice cold water was applied on the tooth surface, and the score was measured by visual analog scale. The patients were randomly assigned to one of the treatment groups (Group 1: MI varnish; Group 2; Clinpro XT varnish). The manufacturer's instructions were followed. The sensitivity scores were recorded immediately and after 1 week of therapy. Statistical Analysis: Mann–Whitney U-test and Wilcoxon-matched pairs test were used for the analysis. Results and Conclusion: Although both varnishes were shown to reduce the dentinal hypersensitivity in patients, according to statistics, MI Varnish was a better agent to reduce dentinal hypersensitivity than Clinpro XT varnish.

It is based on data recorded by the CMS experiment at the CERN LHC at center-of-mass energies root s = 13 and 13.6 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 200 fb(-1). Events with four charged leptons (electrons or muons) in the final state are selected. Both nonresonant WWZ production and ZH production, with the Higgs boson decaying into two W bosons, are reported. For the first time, the two processes are measured separately in a simultaneous fit. Combining the two modes, signal strengths relative to the standard model (SM) predictions of 0.75(-0.29)(+0.34) and 1.74(-0.60)(+0.71) are measured for root s = 13 and 13.6 TeV, respectively. The observed (expected) significance for the triboson signal is 3.8 (2.5) standard deviations for root s = 13.6 TeV, thus providing the first evidence for triboson production at this center-of-mass energy. Combining the two modes and the two center-of-mass energies, the inclusive signal strength relative to the SM prediction is measured to be 1.03(-0.28)(+0.31), with an observed (expected) significance of 4.5 (5.0) standard deviations.SC (Armenia); BMBWF (Austria); FWF (Austria); FNRS (Belgium); FWO (Belgium); CNPq (Brazil); CAPES (Brazil); FAPERJ (Brazil); FAPERGS (Brazil); FAPESP (Brazil); MES (Bulgaria); BNSF (Bulgaria); CERN; CAS (China); MoST (China); NSFC (China); MINCIENCIAS (Colombia); MSES (Croatia); CSF (Croatia); RIF (Cyprus); SENESCYT (Ecuador); ERC PRG (Estonia); ERC RVTT3 (Estonia); MoER TK202 (Estonia); Academy of Finland (Finland); MEC (Finland); HIP (Finland); CEA (France); CNRS/IN2P3 (France); SRNSF (Georgia); BMBF (Germany); DFG (Germany); HGF (Germany); GSRI (Greece); NKFIH (Hungary); DAE (India); DST (India); IPM (Iran); SFI (Ireland); INFN (Italy); MSIP (Republic of Korea); NRF (Republic of Korea); MES (Latvia); LMTLT (Lithuania); MOE (Malaysia); UM (Malaysia); BUAP (Mexico); CINVESTAV (Mexico); CONACYT (Mexico); LNS (Mexico); SEP (Mexico); UASLP-FAI (Mexico); MOS (Montenegro); MBIE (New Zealand); PAEC (Pakistan); MES (Poland); FCT (Portugal); MESTD (Serbia); MICIU/AEI (Spain); PCTI (Spain); MOSTR (Sri Lanka); Swiss Funding Agencies (Switzerland); MST (Taipei); MHESI (Thailand); NSTDA (Thailand); TUBITAK (Turkey); TENMAK (Turkey); NASU (Ukraine); STFC (United Kingdom); DOE(USA); NSF (USA)We congratulate our colleagues in the CERN accelerator departments for the excellent performance of the LHC and thank the technical and administrative staffs at CERN and at other CMS institutes for their contributions to the success of the CMS effort.

The data were obtained with a variety of luminosities. The operating temperature of the strip tracker was changed several times during this period and results are shown as a function of temperature in several cases. Details of the system performance are presented, including occupancy, signal-to-noise ratio, Lorentz angle, and single-hit spatial resolution. Saturation effects in the APV25 readout chip preamplifier observed during early Run 2 are presented, showing the effect on various observables and the subsequent remedy. Studies of radiation effects on the strip tracker are presented both for the optical readout links and the silicon sensors. The observed effects are compared to simulation, where available, and they generally agree well with expectations.Marie-Curie program; European Research Council; Horizon 2020 Grant [675440, 724704, 752730, 758316, 765710, 824093, 101115353, 101002207]; COST Action [CA16108]; Leventis Foundation; Alfred P.
