GPU-Accelerated Algorithm to Compute Bessel-Fourier Moments

Bessel-Fourier moments have been applied in image pattern reconstruction since their introduction in 2010. In this research, a scalable GPU-based algorithm is proposed to accelerate the computation of Bessel-Fourier moments of high orders while preserving accuracy. To analyze our new algorithm, image reconstructions from Bessel-Fourier moments of orders up to 1000 were tested on two systems. The experimental results prove the correctness and scalability of the algorithm. In addition, by investigating the precision-related performance, both 64-bit and 32-bit precisions were shown to provide the same level of computational accuracy for Bessel-Fourier moments of orders up to 1000. Nevertheless, reconstructions with 64-bit precision are computationally more costly. Furthermore, we applied filtering in Bessel-Fourier moments and Fourier Frequency domains and found that Bessel-Fourier moments share some similarities with the frequencies in Fourier Frequency domain, though more image power is distributed in the Bessel-Fourier moments of lower orders.Master of Science in Applied Computer Scienc

Nuclear mass table in deformed relativistic Hartree–Bogoliubov theory in continuum, I: Even–even nuclei

© 2022 Elsevier Inc.Ground-state properties of even–even nuclei with 8≤Z≤120 from the proton drip line to the neutron drip line have been investigated using the deformed relativistic Hartree–Bogoliubov theory in continuum (DRHBc) with the density functional PC-PK1. With the effects of deformation and continuum included simultaneously, 2583 even–even nuclei are predicted to be bound. The calculated binding energies, two-nucleon separation energies, root-mean-square (rms) radii of neutron, proton, matter, and charge distributions, quadrupole deformations, and neutron and proton Fermi surfaces are tabulated and compared with available experimental data. The rms deviation from the 637 mass data is 1.518 MeV, providing one of the best microscopic descriptions for nuclear masses. The drip lines obtained from DRHBc calculations are compared with other calculations, including the spherical relativistic continuum Hartree–Bogoliubov (RCHB) and triaxial relativistic Hartree–Bogoliubov (TRHB) calculations with PC-PK1. The deformation and continuum effects on the limits of the nuclear landscape are discussed. Possible peninsulas consisting of bound nuclei beyond the two-neutron drip line are predicted. The systematics of the two-nucleon separation energies, two-nucleon gaps, rms radii, quadrupole deformations, potential energy curves, neutron densities, neutron mean-field potentials, and pairing energies in the DRHBc calculations are also discussed. In addition, the α decay energies extracted are in good agreement with available data.11Nsciescopu
