Scalar and vector tomography for the weighed transport equation
(Wichita State University, 2018-05)Beginning with the weighted transport equation, P u(x, ω) = hω, ∇xu(x, ω)i + µ(x)u(x, ω) = ρ(x, ω)a(x), x ∈ ω ⊂ R 2 , we examine the properties of acoustic waves that travel below the surface of a solid, such as the ... -
Scalar and vector tomography for the weighted transport equation with application to helioseismology
(De Gruyter Open Ltd, 2022-04-08)Motivated by the application to helioseismology, we demonstrate uniqueness and stability for a class of inverse problems of the weighted transport equation. Using A-analytic functions, this inverse problem is expressed as ... -

The Schoenberg-Levy kernel and relationships among fractional Brownian motion, bifractional Brownian motion, and others
(Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics, 2013)Starting with a discussion about the relationship between the fractional Brownian motion and the bifractional Brownian motion on the real line, we find that a fractional Brownian motion can be decomposed as an independent ... -
Schwarz-Christoffel mapping of multiply connected domains
(Springer Verlag, 2004-12-01)A Schwarz-Christoffel mapping formula is established for polygonal domains of finite connectivity m _> 2 thereby extending the results of Christoffel (1867) and Schwarz (1869) for m = 1 and Komatu (1945), m = 2. A ... -
Scintillation light detection in the 6-m drift-length ProtoDUNE Dual Phase liquid argon TPC
(Springer, 2022-06-24)DUNE is a dual-site experiment for long-baseline neutrino oscillation studies, neutrino astrophysics and nucleon decay searches. ProtoDUNE Dual Phase (DP) is a 6 × 6 × 6 m3 liquid argon time-projection-chamber (LArTPC) ... -
Search for active-sterile antineutrino mixing using neutral-current interactions with the NOvA experiment
(American Physical Society, 2021-11-11)This Letter reports results from the first long-baseline search for sterile antineutrinos mixing in an accelerator-based antineutrino-dominated beam. The rate of neutral-current interactions in the two NOvA detectors, at ... -
Search for active-sterile neutrino mixing using neutral-current interactions in NOvA
(American Physical Society, 2017-10-30)We report results from the first search for sterile neutrinos mixing with active neutrinos through a reduction in the rate of neutral-current interactions over a baseline of 810\,km between the NOvA detectors. Analyzing a ... -
Search for multimessenger signals in NOvA coincident with LIGO/Virgo detections
(American Physical Society, 2020-06-22)Using the NOvA neutrino detectors, a broad search has been performed for any signal coincident with 28 gravitational wave events detected by the LIGO/Virgo Collaboration between September 2015 and July 2019. For all of ... -
Search for slow magnetic monopoles with the NOvA detector on the surface
(American Physical Society, 2021-01-11)We report a search for a magnetic monopole component of the cosmic-ray flux in a 95-day exposure of the NOvA experiment's Far Detector, a 14 kt segmented liquid scintillator detector designed primarily to observe GeV-scale ... -
Searching for solar KDAR with DUNE
(IOP Publishing, 2021-10-22)The observation of 236 MeV muon neutrinos from kaon-decay-at-rest (KDAR) originating in the core of the Sun would provide a unique signature of dark matter annihilation. Since excellent angle and energy reconstruction are ... -
