DES-Y3 galaxies & ACT DR4 CMB lensing tomography

We present a measurement of the cross-correlation between the \maglim galaxies selected from the Dark Energy Survey (DES) first three years of observations (Y3) and cosmic microwave background (CMB) lensing from the Atacama Cosmology Telescope (ACT) Data Release 4 (DR4), reconstructed over $\sim 436$ $\sqdeg$ of the sky. Our galaxy sample, which covers $\sim 4143$ $\sqdeg$, is divided into six redshift bins spanning the redshift range of $0.20<z<1.05$. We adopt a blinding procedure until passing all consistency and systematics tests. After imposing scale cuts for the cross-power spectrum measurement, we reject the null hypothesis of no correlation at 9.1$\sigma$. We constrain cosmological parameters from a joint analysis of galaxy and CMB lensing-galaxy power spectra considering a flat \LCDM model, marginalized over 23 astrophysical and systematic nuisance parameters. We find the clustering amplitude $S_8\equiv \sigma_8 (\Omega_m/0.3)^{0.5} = 0.75^{+0.04}_{-0.05}$. In addition, we co nstrain the linear growth of cosmic structure as a function of redshift. Our results are consistent with recent DES Y3 analyses and suggest a preference for a lower $S_8$ compared to results from measurements of CMB anisotropies by the \textit{Planck} satellite, although at a mild level ($< 2 \sigma$) of statistical significance.

Leveraging Afterglow in Scintillation-based x-ray detectors for spacetime-resolved computed tomography for accelerated acquisition and high-speed event capture

Afterglow in x-ray imaging for high-speed radiography is a constraint that limits imaging systems to low-light/fast decay screens which create poor data. Current approaches focus purely on using low-light yield screens with fast decay to avoid multiple exposure pileup due to afterglow. The goal of this work is to develop a statistical estimation approach to leverage afterglow to improve image quality thus allowing for higher quality imaging components to be used. This will allow for bright screens will slow decay to be used, and then a post-processing step applies the statistical estimation to separate each frame with superior signal compared to low-light/fast decay screens.
