Finite size of hadrons and Bose-Einstein correlations in collisions at 7 TeV
Space-time correlations between produced particles, induced by the composite
nature of hadrons, imply specific changes in the properties of the correlation
functions for identical particles. The expected magnitude of these effects is
evaluated using the recently published blast-wave model analysis of the data
for collisions at = 7 TeV.Comment: The updated version matching the published PLB articl
Bose-Einstein correlations and thermal cluster formation in high-energy collisions
The blast wave model is generalized to include the production of thermal
clusters, as suggested by the apparent success of the statistical model of
particle production at high energies. The formulae for the HBT correlation
functions and the corresponding HBT radii are derived.Comment: minor text corrections, a few references added, version accepted for

Blast-wave model description of the Hanbury-Brown--Twiss radii in pp collisions at LHC energies
The blast wave model is applied to the recent data on HBT radii in pp
collisions, measured by the ALICE collaboration. A reasonable description of
data is obtained for a rather low temperature of the kinetic freeze-out, T ~
100 MeV, and the transverse profile corresponding to the emission from a shell
of a fairly small width 2 d ~ 1.5 fm. The size and the life-time of the
produced system are determined for various multiplicities of the produced
particles.Comment: version published in J. Phys.
Shared Spaces in Cities of Poland
The aim of paper is a presentation an idea of shared space in the cities and results of implementation of this solution in the cities of Poland. The methodology of elaboration consisted of carrying out a review of the literature, comparing existing solutions and formulating conclusions regarding implementation. This trend, which has appeared over the past 50 years as a counterbalance to the pedestrianization of public spaces, is at the beginning of the 21st century experiencing its second youth and is being implemented in many areas in intensive urban development, especially in urban centers and areas of historic character. Shared space solutions are an integral way of shaping functions and forms of revitalized public spaces. These solutions contributes to improving the quality of public space and traffic safety, revitalizing social life, improving and reducing the environmental nuisance caused by traffic and finally created liveable city. Analyzes effectuated indicate, that in central areas of cities in Poland whose spatial arrangement is legally protected, the forms of shared spaces solutions are strongly influenced by strong conservation restrictions in these areas. This means the need to respect existing historical conditions in shaping public spaces, as well as limited transformation possibilities. The Polish solutions of shared spaces presented in this paper of in their forms and quality do not differ from the standard functional solutions abroad. Solutions implemented in the Polish conditions, however, are more modest in terms of materials and implemented in a smaller number than is the case in Western European countries.

Finite size of hadrons and Bose-Einstein correlations
It is observed that the finite size of hadrons produced in high energy collisions implies that their positions are correlated, since the probability to find two hadrons on top of each other is highly reduced. It is then shown that this effect can naturally explain the values of the correlation function below one, observed at LEP and LHC for pairs of identical pions
An Evolution Process For Service-Oriented Systems
Evolution of service-oriented systems is quite a new research area, which becomesmore and more important as engineering challenges move from enablingservice-orientation onto the maintenance and evolution of already developedservice-oriented systems. However, the development of suitable evolution processesand methodologies is still an open research problem. The evolution processpresented in this paper has been designed to address the evolution of serviceorientedsystems, which are technically built out of a set of service compositions.The presented process comprises phases and tasks compliant with ISO 20000.The underlying model of service-oriented system consisting of business processesand corresponding service composition models has also been presented. A traceabilitymodel and tools supporting change impact analysis have also beenprovisioned for. Preliminary industrial validation indicates that the evolutionprocess should be easy to adapt by the industry

Asymmetric fireballs in symmetric collisions
This contribution reports on the results obtained in the two recently published papers [A. Bialas, A. Bzdak, K. Zalewski, Phys. Lett. B710, 332 (2012), A. Bialas, K. Zalewski, Acta Phys. Pol. B 43, 1357 (2012)] demonstrating that data of the STAR Collaboration show a substantial asymmetric component in the rapidity distribution of the system created in central Au–Au collisions, implying that boost invariance is violated on the event-by-event basis even at the mid c.m. rapidity
The Influence of Cognitive Biases on Architectural Technical Debt
Cognitive biases exert a significant influence on human thinking and
decision-making. In order to identify how they influence the occurrence of
architectural technical debt, a series of semi-structured interviews with
software architects was performed. The results show which classes of
architectural technical debt originate from cognitive biases, and reveal the
antecedents of technical debt items (classes) through biases. This way, we
analysed how and when cognitive biases lead to the creation of technical debt.
We also identified a set of debiasing techniques that can be used in order to
prevent the negative influence of cognitive biases. The observations of the
role of organisational culture in the avoidance of inadvertent technical debt
throw a new light on that issue.Comment: Presented at 2021 IEEE 18th International Conference on Software
