Title Physical Limitations to the Spatial Resolution of Solid-State Detectors Type Journal Article
Year 2015 Publication IEEE Transactions on Nuclear Science Abbreviated Journal IEEE Trans. Nucl. Sci.
Volume 62 Issue 1 Pages 381-386
Keywords Charged particle tracking; silicon detectors; solid state devices
Abstract (up) In this paper we explore the effect of delta-ray emission and fluctuations in the signal deposition on the detection of charged particles in silicon-based detectors. We show that these two effects ultimately limit the resolution that can be achieved by interpolation of the signal in finely segmented position-sensitive solid-state devices.

Title Exploring the political pulse of a country using data science tools Type Journal Article
Year 2022 Publication Journal of Computational Social Science Abbreviated Journal J. Comput. Soc. Sci.
Volume 5 Issue Pages 987-1000
Keywords Politics; Spain; Sentiment analysis; Artificial Intelligence; Machine learning; Neural networks; Natural Language Processing (NLP)
Abstract (up) In this paper we illustrate the use of Data Science techniques to analyse complex human communication. In particular, we consider tweets from leaders of political parties as a dynamical proxy to political programmes and ideas. We also study the temporal evolution of their contents as a reaction to specific events. We analyse levels of positive and negative sentiment in the tweets using new tools adapted to social media. We also train a Fully-Connected Neural Network (FCNN) to recognise the political affiliation of a tweet. The FCNN is able to predict the origin of the tweet with a precision in the range of 71-75%, and the political leaning (left or right) with a precision of around 90%. This study is meant to be viewed as an example of how to use Twitter data and different types of Data Science tools for a political analysis.

Title Exploiting symmetries for weight matrix design in CT imaging Type Journal Article
Year 2011 Publication Mathematical and Computer Modelling Abbreviated Journal Math. Comput. Model.
Volume 54 Issue 7-8 Pages 1655-1664
Keywords Computerized tomography imaging; Polar grid; System matrix; Rotation symmetries; ART
Abstract (up) In this paper we propose several methods of constructing the system matrix (SM) of a Computed Tomography (CT) scanner with two objectives: (1) to construct SMs in the shortest possible time and store them in an ordinary PC without losing quality, (2) to analyze the possible applications of the proposed method to 3D, taking into account SMs' sizes, computing time and reconstructed image quality. In order to build the SM, we propose two new field of view (FOV) pixellation schemes, based on a polar coordinate system (polar grid) by taking advantage of the polar rotation symmetries of CT devices. Comparisons between the SMs proposed are performed using two phantom and a real CT-simulator images. Global error, contrast, noise and homogeneity of the reconstructed images are discussed.

Title Search for Cosmic Neutrino Point Sources with Four Years of Data from the Antares Telescope Type Journal Article
Year 2012 Publication Astrophysical Journal Abbreviated Journal Astrophys. J.
Volume 760 Issue 1 Pages 53 - 10pp
Keywords astroparticle physics; cosmic rays; neutrinos
Abstract (up) In this paper, a time-integrated search for point sources of cosmic neutrinos is presented using the data collected from 2007 to 2010 by the ANTARES neutrino telescope. No statistically significant signal has been found and upper limits on the neutrino flux have been obtained. Assuming an E-nu(-2). spectrum, these flux limits are at 1-10x10(-8) GeV cm(-2) s(-1) for declinations ranging from -90 degrees to 40 degrees. Limits for specific models of RX J1713.7-3946 and Vela X, which include information on the source morphology and spectrum, are also given.

Title Unleashing the full power of LHCb to probe stealth new physics Type Journal Article
Year 2022 Publication Reports on Progress in Physics Abbreviated Journal Rep. Prog. Phys.
Volume 85 Issue 2 Pages 024201 - 45pp
Keywords LHCb; stealth physics; BSM physics; hidden sectors; long-lived particles; dark matter
Abstract (up) In this paper, we describe the potential of the LHCb experiment to detect stealth physics. This refers to dynamics beyond the standard model that would elude searches that focus on energetic objects or precision measurements of known processes. Stealth signatures include long-lived particles and light resonances that are produced very rarely or together with overwhelming backgrounds. We will discuss why LHCb is equipped to discover this kind of physics at the Large Hadron Collider and provide examples of well-motivated theoretical models that can be probed with great detail at the experiment.
