TL;DR: A detailed analysis of the planner's convergence rate shows that, if the state×time space satisfies a geometric property called expansiveness, then a slightly idealized version of the implemented planner is guaranteed to find a trajectory when one exists, with probability quickly converging to 1, as the number of milestones increases.

TL;DR: In conjunction with measurements of the electron’s anomalous magnetic moment, this experiment shows that the narrow positron peaks observed in heavy-ion collisions at the Gessellschaft fur Schwerionenforschung are not due to an elementary pseudoscalar.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a framework to incorporate a knowledge of modeling error in the analysis and design of failure detection systems, called the threshold selector, which is a nonlinear inequality whose solution defines the set of detectable sensor failure signals and identifies the optimal threshold to be used in innovations-based DIA algorithms.

TL;DR: In this paper, the proton and deuteron structure functions were determined over the entire SLAC kinematic range: 0.06 ⩽x⩽0.9 and 0.6⌽Q2⌈30.0 (GeV/c)2.

TL;DR: In this paper, a global analysis of eight SLAC deep inelastic experiments on e-p and e-d scattering performed between 1970 and 1985 is presented, showing that R p = R d and R d − R p are larger than predictions based on perturbative QCD and on QCD with the inclusion of kinematic targets.
