Here, in this erratum to our publication, [Phys. Rev. C 62,044303 (2000)], we report the corrections to the previous level scheme of 147,151 Pr and the physical influence of those changes and other typos in the original paper.
This report is the Task E specification (Revision 0) for DECOVALEX-2023. Task E is focused on understanding thermal, hydrological, mechanical and chemical (THMC) processes, especially related to predicting brine migration in heated salt. The main test case being used is the ongoing Brine Availability Test in Salt (BATS) heater test located underground at the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant (WIPP) in Carlsbad, New Mexico. This report provides short motivational background, a summary of relevant experiments and data, and a step-by-step plan for the analysis by the teams participating in Task E (Rev. 0 includes detailed description of steps 0 and 1). This document will be revised, and more detail will be added to later steps during DECOVALEX-2023.
This tensile test is to mimic the worst-case scenario of the swab being caught on an obstruction when being pulled out of the nasopharyngeal space. It is to determine how much tensile force the swab can withstand without breaking. All swabs were provided by HP and were the PA11 material and Rev 10 design. All of the swabs were tested using the protocol outlined in Section 2 (Tensile Testing Procedure). Not all of the swabs were pre-treated using the Autoclave. For those swabs that were pre-treated using the Autoclave, the tensile tests were performed within 6 hours of completion of the Autoclave pre-treatment, with the exception of the “Aged” swabs. For the “Aged” swabs, the tensile tests were performed 7 days after the Autoclave pre -treatment. The “Aged” swabs that were not pre-treated using the Autoclave, were tested 7 days after those that were not “Aged.”
Aeroheating characteristics of the X-33 Rev-F configuration have been experimentally examined in the Langley 20-Inch Mach 6 Air Tunnel (Test 6770). Global surface heat transfer distributions, surface streamline patterns, and shock shapes were measured on a 0.013-scale model at Mach 6 in air. Parametric variations include angles-of-attack of 20-deg, 30-deg, and 40-deg; Reynolds numbers based on model length of 0.9 to 4.9 million; and body-flap deflections of 10-deg and 20-deg. The effects of discrete roughness elements on boundary layer transition, which included trip height, size, and location, both on and off the windward centerline, were investigated. This document is intended to serve as a quick release of preliminary data to the X-33 program; analysis is limited to observations of the experimental trends in order to expedite dissemination.
An extremely halophilic red archaebacterium isolated from the Dead Sea (Ginzburg et al., J. Gen. Physiol. 55: 187-207, 1970) belongs to the genus Haloarcula and differs sufficiently from the previously described species of the genus to be designated a new species; we propose the name Haloarcula marismortui (Volcani) sp. nov., nom. rev. because of the close resemblance of this organism to "Halobacterium marismortui," which was first described by Volcani in 1940. The type strain is strain ATCC 43049.
This document serves as a user’s guide for the CritView code, version 1.05. It supersedes the previous revision (Rev. 1), which was applicable to version 1.04 of CritView. This release of CritView also includes version 1.09 of the database, which replaces version 1.08. The CritView code is used as an electronic equivalent of a nuclear criticality handbook (e.g., ARH-600). This code takes an electronic data library and allows the user to plot data as needed. This approach has two distinct advantages over a paper handbook. First, the database can be easily expanded to include additional data sources (e.g., other handbooks, configurations, or modeling techniques). Secondly, the code provides flexibility by allowing the user to easily change the units and parameters of the plots.
This calendar year (CY) 2021 annual sampling letter report presents Plan implementation and a summary of field activities, sampling methods, well completion diagrams, and analytical laboratory results from sampling of wells on Pahute Mesa. The CY 2021 letter report also presents data from samples collected in CY 2019. These CY 2019 results were not reported in previous sampling reports because they were not available from the specialized laboratory (Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory [LLNL]) at the time of the previous reports’ publication.

We previously published in 2018 a detailed measurement recorded in 2010 for Au+Au collisions at $\sqrt{^SNN}$ = 200 GeV of charged two-pion correlation functions in 0%-30% centrality. We found the data to be well described by Bose-Einstein correlation functions stemming from L$\acute{e}$vy-stable source distributions. Using a fine transverse momentum binning, we extracted the correlation strength parameter λ, the L$\acute{e}$vy index of stability α and the L$\acute{e}$vy length scale parameter R as a function of average transverse mass of the pair m T .

As pointed out by P. Yin, H. Li, A. M. Shirokov, X. Zhao, and J. P. Vary, due to the incorrect normalization of the charge density, our definition of the monopole form factor 𝐹rel(𝑞 2 ) was different from that used in other papers [1,2] by a factor of 1/𝑍. Furthermore, this resulted in the overall incorrect normalization of the monopole form factor in this Letter.
We previously reported jet-production rates in 𝑝 + 𝑝 and 𝑑 + Au collisions at $\sqrt{𝑠_{𝑁𝑁}}$ = 200 GeV recorded in 2008 with the PHENIX detector at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider. Subsequently, we found that electronic noise in the electromagnetic calorimeter was not completely removed by the tower-timing cuts used in the analysis. We have conducted an independent re-analysis of the data that eliminated noisy towers by removing them completely from the analysis. These cuts remove any contributions from instrumental noise, but reduce the overall acceptance for electromagnetic clusters by ≈16% and hence the overall statistical power of the data. Finally, this re-analysis found that instrumental noise in the electromagnetic calorimeter led to an artificial increase in the jet yield for both the 𝑝 + 𝑝 and 𝑑 + Au collisions.
