Abstract: We present PyMerger , a Python tool for detecting binary black hole (BBH) mergers from the Einstein Telescope (ET), based on a deep residual neural network (ResNet) model. ResNet was trained on data combined from all three proposed subdetectors of ET (TSDCD) to detect BBH mergers. Five different lower-frequency cutoffs ( F _low )—5 Hz, 10 Hz, 15 Hz, 20 Hz, and 30 Hz—with the match-filter signal-to-noise ratio (MSNR) ranges 4–5, 5–6, 6–7, 7–8, and >8 were employed in the data simulation. Compared to previous work that utilized data from a single subdetector, the detection accuracy from TSDCD has shown substantial improvements, increasing from 60%, 60.5%, 84.5%, 94.5%, and 98.5% to 78.5%, 84%, 99.5%, 100%, and 100% for sources with MSNRs of 4–5, 5–6, 6–7, 7–8, and >8, respectively. The ResNet model is evaluated on the first ET mock data challenge (ET-MDC1) data set, where the model demonstrates strong performance in detecting BBH mergers, identifying 5566 out of 6578 BBH events, with optimal SNRs starting from 1.2 and a minimum and maximum D _L of 0.5 Gpc and 148.95 Gpc, respectively. Despite being trained only on BBH mergers without overlapping sources, the model achieves high BBH detection rates. Notably, even though the model was not trained on binary neutron star (BNS) and black hole-neutron star (BHNS) mergers, it successfully detected 11,477 BNS and 323BHNS mergers in ET-MDC1, with optimal SNRs starting from 0.2 and 1, respectively, indicating its potential for broader applicability.

2. Detection of Einstein Telescope gravitational wave signals from binary black holes using deep learning

Abstract: The expected volume of data from the third-generation gravitational waves (GWs) Einstein Telescope (ET) detector would make traditional GWs search methods such as match filtering impractical. This is due to the large template bank required and the difficulties in waveforms modelling. In contrast, machine learning (ML) algorithms have shown a promising alternative for GWs data analysis, where ML can be used in developing semi-automatic and automatic tools for the detection, denoising and parameter estimation of GWs sources. Compared to second generation detectors, ET will have a wider accessible frequency band but also a lower noise. The ET will have a detection rate for Binary Black Holes (BBHs) and Binary Neutron Stars (BNSs) of order 1e5 - 1e6 per year and 7e4 per year respectively. In this work, we explore the possibility and efficiency of using convolutional neural networks (CNNs) for the detection of BBHs mergers in synthetic GWs signals buried in gaussian noise. The data was generated according to the ETs parameters using open-source tools. Without performing data whitening or applying bandpass filtering, we trained four CNN networks with the state-of-the-art performance in computer vision, namely VGG, ResNet and DenseNet. ResNet has significantly better performance, detecting BBHs sources with SNR of 8 or higher with 98.5% accuracy, and with 92.5%, 85%, 60% and 62% accuracy for sources with SNR range of 7-8, 6-7, 5-6 and 4-5 respectively. ResNet, in qualitative evaluation, was able to detect a BBHs merger at 60 Gpc with 4.3 SNR. It was also shown that, using CNN for BBHs merger on long time series data is computationally efficient, and can be used for near-real-time detection., 8 pages, 7 figures, accepted for publication in MNRAS

Abstract: We present the results of a model-based search for continuous gravitational waves from the low-mass X-ray binary Scorpius X-1 using LIGO detector data from the third observing run of Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo. This is a semicoherent search that uses details of the signal model to coherently combine data separated by less than a specified coherence time, which can be adjusted to balance sensitivity with computing cost. The search covered a range of gravitational-wave frequencies from 25 to 1600 Hz, as well as ranges in orbital speed, frequency, and phase determined from observational constraints. No significant detection candidates were found, and upper limits were set as a function of frequency. The most stringent limits, between 100 and 200 Hz, correspond to an amplitude h(0) of about 10(-25) when marginalized isotropically over the unknown inclination angle of the neutron star's rotation axis, or less than 4 x 10(-26) assuming the optimal orientation. The sensitivity of this search is now probing amplitudes predicted by models of torque balance equilibrium. For the usual conservative model assuming accretion at the surface of the neutron star, our isotropically marginalized upper limits are close to the predicted amplitude from about 70 to 100 Hz; the limits assuming that the neutron star spin is aligned with the most likely orbital angular momentum are below the conservative torque balance predictions from 40 to 200 Hz. Assuming a broader range of accretion models, our direct limits on gravitational-wave amplitude delve into the relevant parameter space over a wide range of frequencies, to 500 Hz or more.

Abstract: Very-high Energy (VHE) gamma-ray astroparticle physics is a relatively young field, and observations over the past decade have surprisingly revealed almost two hundred VHE emitters which appear to act as cosmic particle accelerators. These sources are an important component of the Universe, influencing the evolution of stars and galaxies. At the same time, they also act as a probe of physics in the most extreme environments known - such as in supernova explosions, and around or after the merging of black holes and neutron stars. However, the existing experiments have provided exciting glimpses, but often falling short of supplying the full answer. A deeper understanding of the TeV sky requires a significant improvement in sensitivity at TeV energies, a wider energy coverage from tens of GeV to hundreds of TeV and a much better angular and energy resolution with respect to the currently running facilities. The next generation gamma-ray observatory, the Cherenkov Telescope Array Observatory (CTAO), is the answer to this need. In this talk I will present this upcoming observatory from its design to the construction, and its potential science exploitation. CTAO will allow the entire astronomical community to explore a new discovery space that will likely lead to paradigm-changing breakthroughs. In particular, CTA has an unprecedented sensitivity to short (sub-minute) timescale phenomena, placing it as a key instrument in the future of multi-messenger and multi-wavelength time domain astronomy. I will conclude the talk presenting the first scientific results obtained by the LST-1, the prototype of one CTAO telescope type - the Large-Sized Telescope, that is currently under commission., PoS: Proceedings of Science, 395, ISSN:1824-8039, Proceedings of 37th International Cosmic Ray Conference (ICRC2021)

Abstract: Summary of the long term data taking, related to one of the proposed next generation ground-based gravitational detector's location is presented here. Results of seismic and infrasound noise, electromagnetic attenuation and cosmic muon radiation measurements are reported in the underground Matra Gravitational and Geophysical Laboratory near Gy\"ongy\"osoroszi, Hungary. The collected seismic data of more than two years is evaluated from the point of view of the Einstein Telescope, a proposed third generation underground gravitational wave observatory. Applying our results for the site selection will significantly improve the signal to nose ratio of the multi-messenger astrophysics era, especially at the low frequency regime., Comment: 47 pages, 37 figures

Abstract: International audience; This paper presents the Mechanical Ventilator Milano (MVM), a novel intensive therapy mechanical ventilator designed for rapid, large-scale, low-cost production for the COVID-19 pandemic. Free of moving mechanical parts and requiring only a source of compressed oxygen and medical air to operate, the MVM is designed to support the long-term invasive ventilation often required for COVID-19 patients and operates in pressure-regulated ventilation modes, which minimize the risk of furthering lung trauma. The MVM was extensively tested against ISO standards in the laboratory using a breathing simulator, with good agreement between input and measured breathing parameters and performing correctly in response to fault conditions and stability tests. The MVM has obtained Emergency Use Authorization by U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for use in healthcare settings during the COVID-19 pandemic and Health Canada Medical Device Authorization for Importation or Sale, under Interim Order for Use in Relation to COVID-19. Following these certifications, mass production is ongoing and distribution is under way in several countries. The MVM was designed, tested, prepared for certification, and mass produced in the space of a few months by a unique collaboration of respiratory healthcare professionals and experimental physicists, working with industrial partners, and is an excellent ventilator candidate for this pandemic anywhere in the world

Abstract: Q-factor of photoacoustic Helmholtz cells can be improved by modification of the duct ends. The paper describes how mechanical modification of the duct ends affects the photoacoustic Helmholtz resonator. The cone profile of the duct ends was studied and, according to previous work, the linear modification of the cone parameter does not result in a linear increase of the resonator Q-factor and resonance frequency. The influence of the conical modification, cone length and angle was investigated using the computer simulations based on the stepped-approximated model.

8. Active narrowband filter based on inductance and capacitance for low-frequency applications

Abstract: Most analog filter solutions operating in the kilohertz frequency range are based on RC elements. However, it is not possible to design a very narrow filter (high q-factor around 1000) by using this architecture. In this article, we would like to show a filter implemented based on a simple series LC resonance circuit (consisting of just an inductor and a capacitor) and an analog circuit. The designed filter based on these elements can be more selective than a typical active filter based on RC elements (resistor and capacitor). Performed measurements confirmed the correct operation of the filter, where the designed filter q-factor was ∼591 at a resonant frequency of 4.73 kHz.

Abstract: We present a new method which allows us to percentage distinction of gas composition with a fast response time. This system uses the speed of sound in a resonant cell along with temperature to determine the gas mixture composition. The gas mixtures contain two gases with an unknown combination. In our experiment, the acoustic waves were excited inside the acoustic longitudinal resonator with the use of a positive feedback. This feedback provides fast tracking of a resonance frequency of the cell and causes fast tracking changes in the speed of sound. The presented method corresponds to the theoretical description of this topic. Two gas mixtures—carbon dioxide and argon mixed with nitrogen—were tested.

10. Improved Photoacoustic Generator

Abstract: In conventional photoacoustic setups, the photoacoustic signal results from stimulation of a sample placed in the photoacoustic cell by the light modulated at a selected frequency. The signal can be amplified in a resonance photoacoustic cell. For this purpose, different types of acoustic resonators are used. Acoustic resonators are passive, frequency selective elements. An acoustic resonator used in a photoacoustic cell offers the opportunity to design a system working on a basis similar to that of a self-oscillating generator. The geometrical dimensions of an acoustic resonator, and the temperature, composition, and concentration of substances in the gas filling its interior determine the resonance frequency. In conventional photoacoustic setups, in which the resonance method is used, the variability of parameters requires continuous adjusting of or searching for the actual resonance frequency. Use of a fixed and arbitrary selected modulation frequency of the light beam can cause considerable errors in detection of substances in the sample or in determination of their concentration. Unlike conventional photoacoustic methods, the frequency of a photoacoustic signal in an improved photoacoustic generator is self-tuned to the actual resonant frequency of the photoacoustic cell. The improved photoacoustic generator operates without an external circuit that controls the optical modulator. The improved photoacoustic generator has been tested in different measurements of the concentration of methane in air. The automatic gain control signal can be used for determination of the absorption by the sample.

Abstract: The frequency response of a photoacoustic cell can be evaluated by measuring the output amplitudes point-by-point at different modulation frequencies, by measuring the pulse response, or by recording the cell response to a chirp stimulation, in which the light modulation signal sweeps within a given range of frequencies. This paper presents yet another method, in which the stimulation signal consists of a number of sine waves with different frequencies. A theoretical description is presented, and properties of the techniques are discussed and compared with the experimental results.

14. Pulse Measurements of the Frequency Response of a Photoacoustic Cell

Subjects: Photoacoustic cell, Frequency response, Materials science, Light source, Amplitude, Optics, Modulation, business.industry, Pulse (signal processing), Condensed Matter Physics, business, Signal, Square (algebra)
Abstract: The determination of the frequency response of a photoacoustic cell is a typical activity during design and adjustment of a photoacoustic setup. The most common method of such measurements is based on point-by-point checking of the amplitude of the photoacoustic signal at different modulation frequencies. Such an approach can be time-consuming, especially if a lot of measurements at low modulation frequencies are to be performed. The article presents a method based on investigation of a photoacoustic response to short square pulse stimulation instead of continuous modulation of the light source. The method allows for measurements of the frequency response to be substantially shortened. A theoretical description and properties of the pulse measurement method are discussed and illustrated with a comparison of experimental results obtained from both frequency response measurement methods.

15. Influence of the Duct Shape on the Q-Factor of a Photoacoustic Helmholtz Resonator

Abstract: The use of a Helmholtz resonator as a photoacoustic cell has many advantages. Its main drawback in high-sensitivity photoacoustic measurements is the relatively low values of Q-factors of such cells. One of the important loss sources which limit the quality factor of photoacoustic Helmholtz resonators is the rapid change of the cross section at the cavity–duct boundaries. This paper presents a design of a cell in which the shape of the duct was modified in such a way that the cross-section change is more gradual. A presented comparison of measurements of the Q-factors shows clearly that the Q-factor of the cell can be improved by almost a factor of two by such a modification of the duct shape.

Abstract: The Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) is a new observatory for very high-energy (VHE) gamma rays. CTA has ambitions science goals, for which it is necessary to achieve full-sky coverage, to improve the sensitivity by about an order of magnitude, to span about four decades of energy, from a few tens of GeV to above 100 TeV with enhanced angular and energy resolutions over existing VHE gamma-ray observatories. An international collaboration has formed with more than 1000 members from 27 countries in Europe, Asia, Africa and North and South America. In 2010 the CTA Consortium completed a Design Study and started a three-year Preparatory Phase which leads to production readiness of CTA in 2014. In this paper we introduce the science goals and the concept of CTA, and provide an overview of the project., La lista completa de autores puede consultarse en el documento o en la página web de la revista., Facultad de Ingeniería

18. Programmable pulse generator based on programmable logic and direct digital synthesis

Author: Tomasz Starecki and M. Suchenek
Subjects: Programmable logic device, Computer Science::Hardware Architecture, Programmable Array Logic, Sequential logic, Computer science, Electronic engineering, Macrocell array, Erasable programmable logic device, Simple programmable logic device, Instrumentation, Programmable logic array, Asynchronous circuit
Abstract: The paper presents a new approach of pulse generation which results in both wide range tunability and high accuracy of the output pulses. The concept is based on the use of programmable logic and direct digital synthesis. The programmable logic works as a set of programmable counters, while direct digital synthesis (DDS) as the clock source. Use of DDS as the clock source results in stability of the output pulses comparable to the stability of crystal oscillators and quasi-continuous tuning of the output frequency.

Subjects: Physics, genetic structures, business.industry, Acoustics, Physics::Medical Physics, Photoacoustic imaging in biomedicine, Conical surface, Condensed Matter Physics, law.invention, Mathematics::Numerical Analysis, Physics::Fluid Dynamics, Resonator, symbols.namesake, Optics, law, Computer Science::Sound, Helmholtz free energy, symbols, Duct (flow), business, Helmholtz resonator
Abstract: The article presents models of a photoacoustic Helmholtz resonator in which the duct is ended with conical profiles. The analytical descriptions led to poor results, and a partly numerical model was presented, in which cone sections of the duct were stepped-approximated by dividing them into a number of short segments with different diameters. The accuracy of the model was compared to the best models of a photoacoustic Helmholtz cell with a constant diameter duct. The proposed stepped-approximation can be used as well for modeling photoacoustic Helmholtz resonators with other profiles of the duct.

21. Photoacoustic Cell with Digital Differential Detection

Author: M. Suchenek
Subjects: Photoacoustic cell, Frequency response, Computer science, Acoustics, Subtraction, Photoacoustic imaging in biomedicine, Microphone signal, Differential (infinitesimal), External noise, Condensed Matter Physics, Signal
Abstract: Solutions which reduce the impact of the external acoustic noise on the photoacoustic signal rely often on the appropriate modification of the photoacoustic cell structure. The goal is to obtain a frequency response of the cell which suppresses the external noise as much as possible. Another approach is differential detection, in which two microphones are used, and assuming that the external noise signal components from both microphones are identical, their subtraction should result in canceling the external noise. The main difficulty of that solution is that both microphone signal paths should be calibrated to have virtually identical characteristics. The paper presents a differential photoacoustic cell with digital differential detection.

Abstract: Ground-based gamma-ray astronomy has had a major breakthrough with the impressive results obtained using systems of imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes. Ground-based gamma-ray astronomy has a huge potential in astrophysics, particle physics and cosmology. CTA is an international initiative to build the next generation instrument, with a factor of 5-10 improvement in sensitivity in the 100 GeV-10 TeV range and the extension to energies well below 100 GeV and above 100 TeV. CTA will consist of two arrays (one in the north, one in the south) for full sky coverage and will be operated as open observatory. The design of CTA is based on currently available technology. This document reports on the status and presents the major design concepts of CTA., La lista completa de autores que integran el documento puede consultarse en el archivo., Departamento de Aeronáutica, Facultad de Ingeniería, Instituto Argentino de Radioastronomía, Facultad de Ciencias Astronómicas y Geofísicas

Abstract: One of the major issues in the use of the resonant photoacoustic cell is the resonance frequency of the cell. The frequency is not stable, and its changes depend mostly on temperature and gas mixture. This paper presents a new method for tracking resonance frequency, where both the amplitude and phase are calculated from the input samples. The stimulating frequency can be adjusted to the resonance frequency of the cell based on the phase. This method was implemented using a digital measurement system with an analog to digital converter, field programmable gate array (FPGA) and a microcontroller. The resonance frequency was changed by the injection of carbon dioxide into the cell. A theoretical description and experimental results are also presented.

Abstract: In this Letter, we present the design and performance of the frequency-dependent squeezed vacuum source that will be used for the broadband quantum noise reduction of the Advanced Virgo Plus gravitational-wave detector in the upcoming observation run. The frequency-dependent squeezed field is generated by a phase rotation of a frequency-independent squeezed state through a 285 m long, high-finesse, near-detuned optical resonator. With about 8.5 dB of generated squeezing, up to 5.6 dB of quantum noise suppression has been measured at high frequency while close to the filter cavity resonance frequency, the intracavity losses limit this value to about 2 dB. Frequency-dependent squeezing is produced with a rotation frequency stability of about 6 Hz rms, which is maintained over the long term. The achieved results fulfill the frequency dependent squeezed vacuum source requirements for Advanced Virgo Plus. With the current squeezing source, considering also the estimated squeezing degradation induced by the interferometer, we expect a reduction of the quantum shot noise and radiation pressure noise of up to 4.5 dB and 2 dB, respectively.

Abstract: This paper presents the Mechanical Ventilator Milano (MVM), a novel intensive therapy mechanical ventilator designed for rapid, large-scale, low-cost production for the COVID-19 pandemic. Free of moving mechanical parts and requiring only a source of compressed oxygen and medical air to operate, the MVM is designed to support the long-term invasive ventilation often required for COVID-19 patients and operates in pressure-regulated ventilation modes, which minimize the risk of furthering lung trauma. The MVM was extensively tested against ISO standards in the laboratory using a breathing simulator, with good agreement between input and measured breathing parameters and performing correctly in response to fault conditions and stability tests. The MVM has obtained Emergency Use Authorization by U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for use in healthcare settings during the COVID-19 pandemic and Health Canada Medical Device Authorization for Importation or Sale, under Interim Order for Use in Relation to COVID-19. Following these certifications, mass production is ongoing and distribution is under way in several countries. The MVM was designed, tested, prepared for certification, and mass produced in the space of a few months by a unique collaboration of respiratory healthcare professionals and experimental physicists, working with industrial partners, and is an excellent ventilator candidate for this pandemic anywhere in the world., (© 2021 Author(s).)

26. Active narrowband filter based on inductance and capacitance for low-frequency applications.

Author: Burd A and Suchenek M
Abstract: Most analog filter solutions operating in the kilohertz frequency range are based on RC elements. However, it is not possible to design a very narrow filter (high q-factor around 1000) by using this architecture. In this article, we would like to show a filter implemented based on a simple series LC resonance circuit (consisting of just an inductor and a capacitor) and an analog circuit. The designed filter based on these elements can be more selective than a typical active filter based on RC elements (resistor and capacitor). Performed measurements confirmed the correct operation of the filter, where the designed filter q-factor was ∼591 at a resonant frequency of 4.73 kHz.
