No. of bitstreams: 1 caldeira_mco_me_prud.pdf: 4776033 bytes, checksum: ecc26c1af2e4e6f23b65a5eecbd9ed03 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2016-02-11 / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior (CAPES) / Fundação de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado de São Paulo (FAPESP) / Visando usufruir do potencial dos sistemas de posicionamento global existentes, novos métodos de posicionamento têm surgido e outros vêm sendo aprimorados. Uma grande tendência nos últimos anos tem sido o uso de redes de estações GNSS de referência. Mas, tanto no uso de redes como nos demais métodos, um fator importante para melhorar a qualidade do posicionamento está relacionado com a modelagem atmosférica. Especial atenção deve ser dada aos erros que ocorrem devido à ionosfera, pois ela se tornou a principal fonte de erro no posicionamento GNSS, após desativação da técnica SA. Este erro é diretamente proporcional ao Conteúdo Total de Elétrons (TEC) e inversamente proporcional ao quadrado da frequência do sinal. O TEC e, consequentemente, o erro ionosférico variam no tempo e no espaço, e sofrem diversas influências, como: ciclo solar, época do ano, hora local, localização geográfica, atividade geomagnética, entre outros. Atualmente, o os erros proporcionados pela ionosfera podem ter seus efeitos minimizados a partir de arquivos IONEX ou por meio de modelagem ionosférica. Portanto, nesta pesquisa, foram utilizados dados das estações da RBMC em diferentes regiões do Brasil no período de baixa e alta densidade de elétrons do pico solar 24 para avaliar o desempenho dos mapas ionosféricos, no posicionamento baseado em redes, disponibilizados por diversos centros (CODE, ESA, JPL, UPC e IGS), bem como os fornecidos pelo projeto MIMOSA, e também os modelos de Grade (AGUIAR, 2010) e estimativa de TEC. Para tal fim, foi adotado um sistema computacional desenvolvido na FCT/UNESP, denominado VRS-Unesp, que emprega o conceito de Estação Virtual. De acordo com os resultados obtidos, nota-se que não há um único mapa fornecido pelos centros de análise do IGS que melhor se enquadra a realidade brasileira, além disso, o desempenho do mapa depende das condições ionosféricas e, principalmente, da localização da estação. Além disso, verificou-se que a acurácia obtida pelo IONEX do projeto MIMOSA, pelo modelo de grade e de Estimativa do TEC que utilizam dados regionais e possuem maior resolução espacial e temporal, foram os que apresentaram os melhores resultados. Por fim foi avaliada a correlação entre a acurácia do posicionamento por ponto e o índice de cintilação S4, já que a ionosfera pode não apenas degradar a acurácia do posicionamento GNSS como reduzir sua disponibilidade, pois existe uma alta dependência entre perdas do sinal e irregularidades ionosféricas. Como resultado, considerando a análise de espaço-frequência em relação ao tempo pelo método coerência wavelets para avaliação da correlação da série, nota-se uma correlação no périodo do equinócio superior a 70%. / In order to take advantage from global positioning systems, new positioning methods have emerged and others have been improved. An important tendency in recent years has been the use of GNSS reference stations networks. But, using networks or other positioning methods an important factor to improve the positioning quality is related to atmospheric modeling. Special attention should be given to errors that occur due to ionosphere, it became the largest error source in GNSS positioning after disabling SA technique. Ionosphere error depends on signal frequency and Total Electron Content (TEC) in the ionospheric layer. TEC and consequently the ionospheric error varies regularly in time and space and they are affected by different sources like: sunspot number (solar cycle), season, local time, geographic position, geomagnetic activity, and others. Currently, the errors provided by the ionosphere can be minimized using IONEX files or models. Therefore, in this research, the RBMC stations data were used in different regions of Brazil in the period of low and high electron density of the cycle solar 24 to evaluate the performance of the ionospheric maps, in network-based positioning, available from several centers, as CODE , ESA, JPL, UPC and IGS, as well as those provided by the MIMOSA project, and also the Grade Models (AGUIAR, 2010) and TEC Estimates. For this, a computer system developed in FCT / UNESP has been adopted, RSV-Unesp that uses the concept of Virtual Station. According to the results, we note that there is not single map of IGS analysis centers that best fits the Brazilian reality, moreover, the map performance depends on the ionospheric conditions and, primarily, the station location. Moreover, it was found that the accuracy obtained by IONEX the MIMOSA project, the Grade Model and TEC estimation using regional data and have higher spatial and temporal resolution, showed the best results. Finally we evaluated the correlation between the accuracy of point positioning and scintillation index S4, since the ionosphere can not only degrade the accuracy of GNSS positioning as well as reduce its availability, because there is a high dependency between signal loss and ionospheric irregularities. As result, considering the space-frequency analysis with respect to time by the wavelet coherence method for evaluation of the correlation of the series, there is a correlation in the period of higher equinox to 70%. / FAPESP: 2014/03858-9

No. of bitstreams: 0 / Este trabalho teve como objetivos estabelecer os protocolos para o cálculo de incertezas de medição e a interpretação dos resultados de monitoração do Laboratório de Monitoração In Vivo (LMIV). Especificamente, o trabalho visou quantificar a contribuição dos fatores de influência para o cálculo de incertezas, e estabelecer a incerteza nas medidas. Foram utilizados dois detectores cintiladores de iodeto de sódio ativados com tálio (NaI:Tl) que possuem dimensões de 8x4\" (detector de corpo inteiro) e 3x3\" (detector de tireóide), um analisador multicanal EG&G Ortec, modelo 920E, e um microcomputador onde os espectros são adquiridos, analisados e armazenados com o auxílio do programa Renascence32, Ortec. As medições foram realizadas utilizando-se o objeto simulador antropomórfico do Alderson Research Labs. O radionuclídeo de interesse adotado para este estudo foi o 137Cs. Foram estudadas as influências dos fatores operador, geometria de medição, condições ambientais, flutuações eletrônicas com o tempo e baixa atividade. A análise das incertezas resultou em uma incerteza combinada relativa de 15,7% para o sistema 8x4\" e 9,8% para o sistema 3x3\". Estes valores foram obtidos seguindo os princípios recomendados no Guia para Expressão da Incerteza de Medição (GUM) da Joint Committee for Guides in Metrology (JCGM). / Dissertação (Mestrado) / IPEN/D / Instituto de Pesquisas Energeticas e Nucleares - IPEN-CNEN/SP

Étude des effets mémoire dans les matériaux scintillateurs / Study of memory effects in scintillating materials

Patton, Gaël 17 September 2015 (has links)
L'intérêt des matériaux scintillateurs est la conversion de rayonnements de hautes énergies (particule γ, particules α, électrons,...) en photons de basse énergie détectables par les photo-détecteurs habituels. Ils sont utilisés dans de nombreuses applications : recherche en physique des hautes énergies, spectrométrie gamma pour la recherche ou la radio-protection, imagerie médicale ou technique, ainsi que pour la sécurité intérieure. Les propriétés de scintillation de ce type de matériau sont dépendantes de l'historique d'irradiation. Ce comportement, appelé effets mémoire, influe directement sur les performances des instruments utilisant ces matériaux. Trois effets mémoire différents peuvent être distingués : le vieillissement qui est une diminution du rendement de scintillation après une absorption de rayonnements ionisants, la rémanence qui est la persistance de l'émission lumineuse après la fin de l'excitation, et enfin la radio-sensibilisation qui est une augmentation, temporaire ou non, du rendement de scintillation en fonction de la dose absorbée par le scintillateur. Ce travail s'attache principalement à la compréhension du phénomène de radio-sensibilisation et à la rémanence dans les scintillateurs. Un matériau modèle, YP O4 : Ce, N d, a été utilisé afin de mettre en évidence la corrélation entre les pièges électroniques présents dans le matériau et les effets mémoire. Une fois ce lien mis en évidence, une étude sur un matériau commercial largement utilisé dans de nombreuses applications, l'iodure de césium dopé thallium, a été menéee. Sur la base de mesures de thermoluminescence, un modèle numérique a été développé afin de simuler les effets mémoire dans ces matériaux, puis de prédire leurs comportements en cas de modification des pièges électroniques. Par ailleurs, des méthodes de réduction des effets mémoire ont été étudiées via l'introduction de nouveaux pièges aux caractéristiques précises ou via la stimulation optique du matériau en parallèle de son irradiation / The interest of scintillating materials is the conversion of high energy radiations (γ or α particles, electrons, ...) in low energy photons detectable by usual photo-detectors. They are used in many applications : research in high energy physics, gamma spectrometry for research or radiation protection, medical and technical X-ray imaging, as well as for homeland security. The scintillation properties of this materials is dependent on the history of irradiation. This behavior, called memory effect, directly affects the performance of instruments using these materials. Three different memory effects can be distinguished : aging is a decrease in the scintillation yield after an absorption of ionizing radiation, the afterglow is the persistence of light emission after excitation, and finally radio-sensitization which is an increase of scintillation yield depending on the dose absorbed by the scintillator. This work mainly focus on the understanding of radio-sensitization phenomenon and afterglow in the scintillators. A model material, Y PO4 : Ce,Nd, was used to highlight the correlation between charges carrier traps present in the material and memory effects. Once this link is highlighted, a study of a commercial material widely used in many applications, thallium doped cesium iodide, was lead. Based on thermoluminescence measures, a numerical model was developed to simulate the memory effects in these materials and to predict their behavior in case of modification of charge carrier traps. Furthermore, several methods to reduce memory effects were investigated through the introduction of new traps with specific characteristics or through optical stimulation of the material in parallel to its irradiation. Finally, the role of radiosensitization in the scintillation efficiency under gamma excitation was highlighted on BaAl4O7 : Eu2+ ceramics. These results suggest a way to improve performance of some scintillating performance by the exaltation via prior irradiation

Akustische Tomographie und optische Scintillometertechnik zur Sondierung der atmosphärischen Grenzschicht

Teichmann, Ulrich, Ziemann, Astrid, Arnold, Klaus, Raabe, Armin 24 November 2016 (has links)
Während eines Experimentes an der Forschungsstation Melpitz des IfT (Institut für Tropossphärenforschung) im September 1997 wurden erstmalig zwei verschiedene Meßmethoden gleichzeitig eingesetzt, die flächengemittelte Lufttemperaturen (Akustische Tomographie - Leipziger Institut für Meteorologie (LIM)) sowie liniengemittelte fühlbare Wärmeflüsse (Scintillometertechnik - IfT) lieferten. Es konnte gezeigt werden, daß teilweise erhebliche Temperaturdifferenzen an einem Strahlungstag auf dieser oberflächlich betrachteten horizontal homogenen Wiese existieren. Die geringe Datenbasis, größtenteils bedingt durch die ungünstige Anströmrichtung während dieses Zeitraums, läßt noch keinen sicheren Schluß zu, ob diese horizontalen Temperaturdifferenzen für die ebenfalls beobachteten horizontalen Unterschiede der vertikalen fühlbaren Wärmeflüsse und damit für die manchmal in Melpitz beobachtete Nicht-Schließung der Energiebilanz verantwortlich sind. / During an experiment at the Iff field research station Melpitz in September 1997 for the first time two different techniques were used to determine simultaneously area averaged air temperatures (Acoustic Tomography -LIM) and line averaged sensible heat fluxes (Scintillation technique - IfT). lt could be shown that on a \''golden\'' day appreciably large temperature differences occurred on this superficially considered horizontal homogeneous meadow. Because of the weak data base mostly due to difficult fetch conditions it could not be proven that these temperature differences led to the horizontal differences of vertical sensible heat fluxes and therefore to the sometimes observed non-closure of the energy balance in Melpitz.
