Measurement of hard double-parton interactions in W(-> lv) plus 2-jet events at root s=7 TeV with the ATLAS detector

Abstract: The production of W bosons in association with two jets in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of root s = 7 TeV has been analysed for the presence of double-parton interactions using data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 36 pb(-1), collected with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. The fraction of events arising from double-parton interactions, f(DP)((D)), has been measured through the p(T) balance between the two jets and amounts to f(DP)((D)) = 0.08 +/- 0.01 (stat.) +/- 0.02 (sys.) for jets with transverse momentum p(T) > 20 GeV and rapidity vertical bar y vertical bar < 2.8. This corresponds to a measurement of the effective area parameter for hard double-parton interactions of sigma(eff) = 15 +/- 3 (stat.)(-3)(+5) (sys.) mb.

Heater orientation effects on pool boiling of micro-porous-enhanced surfaces in saturated FC-72

Abstract: Experiments are performed to understand the effects of surface orientation on the pool boiling characteristics of a highly wetting fluid from a flush-mounted, micro-porous-enhanced square heater Micro-porous enhancement was achieved by applying copper and aluminum particle coatings to the heater surfaces Effects of heater orientation on CHF and nucleate boiling heat transfer for uncoated and coated surfaces are compared A correlation is developed to predict the heater orientation effect on CHF for those surfaces

Power system modeling

Abstract: A discussion of the philosophy of modeling of three-phase transmission lines, three-phase transformers, three-phase generators, and power system loads is presented. Although the topic is very basic, the material covered is not all conventional. Single-phase representation of a three-phase power system is discussed in detail. Assumptions usually employed in the power industry are stated. Also discussed is the mathematical representation of a non-symmetrical three-phase power system in which the symmetrical-component method is not applied. An important aspect is the study of the models used in present-day problems as well as the models that may be required in the near future.
