A high-resolution TDC-based board for a fully digital trigger and data acquisition system in the NA62 experiment at CERN

A Time to Digital Converter (TDC) based system, to be used for most sub-detectors in the high-flux rare-decay experiment NA62 at CERN SPS, was built as part of the NA62 fully digital Trigger and Data AcQuisition system (TDAQ), in which the TDC Board (TDCB) and a general-purpose motherboard (TEL62) will play a fundamental role. While TDCBs, housing four High Performance Time to Digital Converters (HPTDC), measure hit times from sub-detectors, the motherboard processes and stores them in a buffer, produces trigger primitives from different detectors and extracts only data related to the lowest trigger level decision, once this is taken on the basis of the trigger primitives themselves. The features of the TDCB board developed by the Pisa NA62 group are extensively discussed and performance data is presented in order to show its compliance with the experiment requirements.Comment: 6 pages, 7 figures, presented to IEEE RT 2014 Conference and I want to publish in TN

A Probe into the Reform of Public Calligraphy Course in Chinese Colleges and Universities

中国书法是中国传统文化中的瑰宝，它既是一门艺术，又有着深厚的文化内涵。我国普通高校开设公共书法教学是与目前倡导的素质教育，培养创新型人才，提倡人的全面和谐发展的高等教育理念相一致的。加强高校公共书法教育，是全面推进素质教育的有效途径之一，也是提高当代大学生人文素质的重要手段。它对促进大学生人格完善、创造力培养以及民族文化的传承等有着不可低估的作用。本文主要针对我国普通高等院校公共书法教学现状进行分析，并由此比较借鉴日本高校中实施书法教学的成功经验提出对我国高校公共书法教学改革的具体建议和措施，设计并实践一种具备学科视野的、以学生为主体的公共书法教学的新模式。论文共分为五部分。引言扼要介绍论文写...Chinese calligraphy is a treasure of Chinese traditional culture. It not only is an art, but also has profound culture contents. Opening the public calligraphy course to the university students is in accordance with the concept that advocated by the current quality- oriented education, which aims to cultivate the students’ creative talent and comprehensive development. This paper concentrates on a...学位：文学硕士院系专业：艺术教育学院美术系_美术学学号：20042201

The GAPS Programme at TNG. XXVIII. A pair of hot-Neptunes orbiting the young star TOI-942

Context. Young stars and multi-planet systems are two types of primary objects that allow us to study, understand, and constrain planetary formation and evolution theories. Aims: We validate the physical nature of two Neptune-sized planets transiting TOI-942 (TYC 5909-319-1), a previously unacknowledged young star (50-20+30 Myr) observed by the TESS space mission in Sector 5. Methods: Thanks to a comprehensive stellar characterization, TESS light curve modeling and precise radial-velocity measurements, we validated the planetary nature of the TESS candidate and detected an additional transiting planet in the system on a larger orbit. Results: From photometric and spectroscopic observations we performed an exhaustive stellar characterization and derived the main stellar parameters. TOI-942 is a relatively active K2.5V star (log R'HK = -4.17 ± 0.01) with rotation period Prot = 3.39 ± 0.01 days, a projected rotation velocity v sin i⋆ = 13.8 ± 0.5 km s-1, and a radius of ~0.9 R⊙. We found that the inner planet, TOI-942 b, has an orbital period Pb = 4.3263 ± 0.0011 days, a radius Rb = 4.242-0.313+0.376 R⊕, and a mass upper limit of 16 M⊕ at 1σ confidence level. The outer planet, TOI-942 c, has an orbital period Pc = 10.1605-0.0053+0.0056 days, a radius Rc = 4.793-0.351+0.410 R⊕, and a mass upper limit of 37 M⊕ at 1σ confidence level. Based on observations made with the Italian Telescopio Nazionale Galileo (TNG) operated by the Fundación Galileo Galilei (FGG) of the Istituto Nazionale di Astrofisica (INAF) at the Observatorio del Roque de los Muchachos (La Palma, Canary Islands, Spain). The authors became aware of a parallel effort on the characterization of TOI-942 by Zhou et al. (2021) in the late stages of the manuscript preparations. The submissions are coordinated, and no analyses or results were shared prior to submission
