Neural Network Analysis on the NOvA Experiment

NOνA is collaboration of 180 scientists and engineers from 28 institutions which plans to study neutrino oscillations using the existing NuMI neutrino beam at Fermilab. The NOνA experiment is designed to search for oscillations of muon neutrinos to electron neutrinos by comparing the electron neutrino event rate measured at the Fermilab site with the electron neutrino event rate measured at a location just south of International Falls, MN 810 kilometers distant from Fermilab. If oscillations occur, the far site will see the appearance of electrons in the muon neutrino beam produced at Fermilab. The presence of background radiation obscures the desired particles and trails to be observed. Using neural network analysis, the goal of the project was to implement machine learning to automate the removal of background radiation to render pixel maps of the particle trajectories.

LCA of Carbon Capture Retrofit Using the “Petra Nova Style” Model - LCAXVIII

This work was presented at the American Center for Life Cycle Assessment (ACLCA) LCAXVIII Conference in Fort Collins, CO on September 26, 2018. This analysis compares the life cycle environmental impacts for an amine-based capture retrofit with an external co-gen source providing the utility inputs for capture compared to a more traditional retrofit in which the plant/unit output is de-rated with the utility inputs for operating the capture system coming directly from the plant. One of the major differences between the designs is that in the case of the external co-gen unit, the combustion emissions associated with operating the capture unit are not part of the flue gas stream that is directed to the capture unit. Another unique consideration in this analysis is the inclusion of the upstream natural gas life cycle in the boundaries of the co-gen retrofit.
