  1. This is the optical microscopy raw data and processed data to our published manuscript. Our code used for analysis has been published in the supporting information of the manuscript, but can also be found here. The data here can be used to test the code and reproduce the published results. The dataset is best viewed in tree mode, because it contains 1000 files, which are organized in folders. The following items are in the root folder: GO, GOe, GOw folders: data from three different samples as discussed in the manuscript ParticleAnalysis-Histograms_and_Data.qti: analyzed histograms and derived plots, as used in the manuscript (QtiPlot format) Each of the three folders with sample data has subfolders Raw images (PNG format) and Processed images (TIFF and ASCII formats). The latter folder contains files of different stages of the processing process: Averaged: Average of raw images EmptySubstrateDivided: Image after division by empty substrate EmptySubstrateDivided-GwyddionExport: Same as previous, but in Gwyddion text (ASCII) image format ExtractedBackground: Fitted plane in Gwyddion text (ASCII) format Final: Image after division by fitted plan Final-Inverted: Final image after inversion (may not be present if inversion not required)

  2. Many theories beyond the Standard Model (SM) predict new phenomena, such as [Formula: see text] and vector-like quarks, in final states containing bottom- or top-quarks. It is challenging to reconstruct and identify the decay products and model the major background processes. Nevertheless, such final states offer great potential to reduce the SM backgrounds due to their characteristic decay signature. The latest searches in the third-generation quark final states using the full Run-2 proton–proton collision data collected by the ATLAS experiment are presented. Particularly, the recent results of di-bjet and top-antitop resonance searches and dark matter produced in association with a top-quark are discussed in these proceedings. The associated improvements in [Formula: see text]-quark and top-quark identification techniques are also highlighted.

  3. In this paper, we describe our solution to predict student STEM career choices during the 2017 ASSISTments Datamining Competition. We built a machine learning system that automatically reformats the data set, generates new features and prunes redundant ones, and performs model and feature selection. We designed the system to automatically find a model that optimizes prediction performance, yet the final model is a simple logistic regression that allows researchers to discover important features and study their effects on STEM career choices. We also compared our method to other methods, which revealed that the key to good prediction is proper feature enrichment in the beginning stage of the data analysis, while feature selection in a later stage allows a simpler final model.

  4. A novel approach that allows access to long-sought information on theHyperon-Nucleon (YN) interaction was developed by producing a hyperonbeam within a few-body nuclear system, and studying final-stateinteractions. The determination of polarisation observables, andspecifically the beam spin asymmetry, in exclusive reactions allows adetailed study of the various final-state interactions and provides uswith the tools needed to isolate kinematic regimes where the YNinteraction dominates. High-statistics data collected using the CLASdetector housed in Hall-B of the Thomas Jefferson laboratory allows usto obtain a large set of polarisation observables and place stringentconstraints on the underlying dynamics of the YN interaction.

  5. Abstract This study analyzes the two‐dimensional speed profiles of 107 stepped leaders and 93 dart leaders recorded by high‐speed cameras in Utah (USA), together with data from lightning location system. The results shows that the final and average speed of the stepped leader has a very strong (R = 0.82) and strong (R = 0.71) correlation with the peak current of the return stroke. It also shows that 91% of the stepped leaders increased their speed near the ground (average increase of 69%). The same analysis for dart leaders shows weak correlation with the peak current of the prospective return stroke (R = 0.39 to average speed andR = 0.28 to final speed). This paper briefly discusses why peak current is better correlated with final speed than with the average speed, and why stepped leaders exhibit a significant correlation, while dart leaders do not.
