radkit base v1.6

The radkit (base) software suite (python) consists of three primary libraries: stark, trajan, and curie. The trajan library provides the tools to analyze and manipulate data from lidar and inertial measurement unit (IMU) devices, cameras, as well as trajectories from algorithms such as simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM). These components allow reading and writing standard data formats, performing rigid affine transformations, discretizing three-dimensional space, and visualizing data products. The curie library comprises a standard set of object-oriented tools for radiation data and analysis in the following modules: (1) listmode and binmode data classes with methods for manipulation, plotting, slicing and file IO; (2) radiological/nuclear source detection/identification analysis results; (3) source encounters of correlated analyses and (4) energy-dependent angular detector response functions. The stark package provides low-level tools that are leveraged by both curie and trajan. The tools are flexible for offline analysis as well as performant for real-time integrations.

Electron Beam Treatment of Ballast Water

Members from the Great Waters Research Collaborative (GWRC), a project of the University of Wisconsin-Superior (UWS) Lake Superior Research Institute (LSRI), will be bringing two water types to simulate the electron beam removal process for ballast waters. These two types are named low challenge and high challenge. The Low Challenge water is highly transparent water with very low concentration of total suspended solids and dissolved organic carbon. The High Challenge water is like Duluth-Superior Harbor water with low transparency and higher concentration of total suspended solids and dissolved organic carbon. Both water types will undergo a series of applied electron beam radiations and analysis to meet ballast water discharge standards. For the analysis there are standard test organisms that will be evaluated for mortality. Heterotrophic bacteria (E. coli) along with Selenastrum capricornutum will be used and then Eucyclops spp. (or Hyalella azteca) and Daphnia magna will also be evaluated.

Cosmological Constraints on Secluded Dark Radiation

Dark radiation (DR) is ubiquitous in physics beyond the Standard Model (SM), and its interactions with the SM and dark matter (DM) lead to a variety of interesting effects on cosmological observables. However, even in scenarios where DR is 'secluded', i.e., only gravitationally interacting with SM and DM, it can leave discernible signatures. We present a comprehensive study of four different types of DR: free-streaming, self-interacting (coupled), decoupling, and recoupling DR, and vary initial conditions to include both adiabatic and isocurvature perturbations. In addition to these properties, we also vary neutrino energy density, DR energy density, and the SM neutrino masses to perform a general analysis and study degeneracies among neutrino and DR properties. We derive constraints using the cosmic microwave background, large-scale structure, and supernova datasets. We find no significant preference for physics beyond the $Λ$CDM model, but data exhibit interesting interplays between different physical quantities. When the neutrino energy density is allowed to vary, we find that the cosmological dataset prefers massless free-streaming DR over massive neutrinos, leading to a significant relaxation of the neutrino mass bound. Although we do not find any evidence of DR isocurvature, the data show support for a strong blue tilt of the isocurvature power spectrum. Our analysis also highlights the degeneracy of various DR parameters with the Hubble constant $H_0$ resulting in a mild relaxation of the $H_0$ tension.
