    Description: Neutrons produced in nuclear interactions initiated by cosmic-ray muons present an irreducible background to many rare-event searches, even in detectors located deep underground. Models for the production of these neutrons have been tested against previous experimental data, but the extrapolation to deeper sites is not well understood. Here we report results from an analysis of cosmogenically produced neutrons at the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory. A specific set of observables are presented, which can be used to benchmark the validity of geant4 physics models. In addition, the cosmogenic neutron yield, in units of 10−4  cm2/(g⋅μ), is measured to be 7.28±0.09(stat)+1.59−1.12(syst) in pure heavy water and 7.30±0.07(stat)+1.40−1.02(syst) in NaCl-loaded heavy water. These results provide unique insights into this potential background source for experiments at SNOLAB.

    Description: Atmospheric CO2 and global climate are closely coupled. Since 800 ka CO2 concentrations have been up to 50% higher during interglacial compared to glacial periods. Because of its dependence on temperature, humidity, and erosion rates, chemical weathering of exposed silicate minerals was suggested to have dampened these cyclic variations of atmospheric composition. Cooler and drier conditions and lower non-glacial erosion rates suppressed in situ chemical weathering rates during glacial periods. However, using systematic variations in major element geochemistry, Sr–Nd isotopes and clay mineral records from Ocean Drilling Program Sites 1143 and 1144 in the South China Sea spanning the last 1.1 Ma, we show that sediment deposited during glacial periods was more weathered than sediment delivered during interglacials. We attribute this to subaerial exposure and weathering of unconsolidated shelf sediments during glacial sealevel lowstands. Our estimates suggest that enhanced silicate weathering of tropical shelf sediments exposed during glacial lowstands can account for ∼9% of the carbon dioxide removed from the atmosphere during the glacial and thus represent a significant part of the observed glacial–interglacial variation of ∼80 ppmv. As a result, if similar magnitudes can be identified in other tropical shelf-slope systems, the effects of increased sediment exposure and subsequent silicate weathering during lowstands could have potentially enhanced the drawdown of atmospheric CO2 during cold stages of the Quaternary. This in turn would have caused an intensification of glacial cycles.

    Description: The oil spill creating potentially serious environmental impacts on both marine life and the coastal shorelines. Accurately oil spill monitoring can reduce economic loss and assess these impacts. With the development of imaging technology, high spectral resolution data in hyperspectral imagery (HSI) sensors provide a valuable source of information that can be used for oil spill area segmentation by semi-automatic methods. At present, there are many methods for oil spill segmentation, most of which are based on threshold or neural network. These methods can achieve better segmentation results when the oil spill image is clear, but do not effectively segment the oil spill area when the image with high noisy and the oil spill area is blurred. In this article, for hyperspectral images blurred with high noisy, a BF-MD-LBF model is proposed. There are two key steps in the proposed method: (1) To take advantage of spectral information, KPCA is introduced to Local Binary Fitting (LBF) energy function and a new energy function model is constructed; (2) To have hyperspectral image smoothed without blurring the edges, the bilateral filter is incorporated into the LBF energy function as regularization term.

    Description: A search has been performed for neutrinos from two sources, the hep reaction in the solar pp fusion chain and the νe component of the diffuse supernova neutrino background (DSNB), using the full dataset of the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory with a total exposure of 2.47  kton−years after fiducialization. The hep search is performed using both a single-bin counting analysis and a likelihood fit. We find a best-fit flux that is compatible with solar model predictions while remaining consistent with zero flux, and set a one-sided upper limit of Φhep〈30×103  cm−2 s−1 [90% credible interval (CI)]. No events are observed in the DSNB search region, and we set an improved upper bound on the νe component of the DSNB flux of ΦDSNBνe〈19  cm−2 s−1 (90% CI) in the energy range 22.9〈Eν〈36.9  MeV.
