Research on Pedestrians’ Visual Perception Characteristics Based on USGGS: A Case Study of the Six Inner-City Districts of Tianjin by Hanwen YANG, Shang’en TSOU, Yike HU

“…The core objective of the research is to propose strategies to optimize the greening structure of urban streets by analyzing the correlation between USGGS and visual perception of pedestrians, so as to enhance the quality of the visual environment of street pedestrians, improve the urban human settlement environment and promote the organic integration of the urban ecological and humanistic environments, thus providing a new way of thinking for urban planning and construction, and promoting the high-quality and sustainable development of urban street space.MethodsThe research selects the six inner-city districts of Tianjin City as the research area, utilizes Baidu street view image (SVI) as data source, and collect SVIs and their coordinates in the six districts in 2019 by calling Baidu API, with a total of 17,326 points selected and 13,281 valid samples obtained after screening. …”

Wave-packet manipulation of He Rydberg states by a seeded free-electron laser by Mathieu Dumergue, Paolo Antonio Carpeggiani, Tamás Csizmadia, Miltcho Danailov, Alexander Demidovich, Giovanni De Ninno, Michele Di Fraia, Per Eng-Johnsson, Dominik Ertel, Hikaru Fujise, Mizuho Fushitani, Luca Giannessi, Harshitha Nandiga Gopalakrishna, Akiyoshi Hishikawa, Heide Ibrahim, Sergei Kühn, Francois Légaré, Yu Luo, Praveen Kumar Maroju, Johan Mauritsson, Matteo Moioli, Anna Olofsson, Jasper Peschel, Oksana Plekan, Stephen T. Pratt, Lorenzo Raimondi, Primož Rebernik Ribič, Shu Saito, Giuseppe Sansone, Ronak Shah, Emma R. Simpson, Daehyun You, Marco Zangrando, Carlo Callegari, Kiyoshi Ueda, Kevin C. Prince

“…The He atoms were postionized by infrared (IR) pulses, and the ion yield was measured as a function of XUV phase and IR arrival time. We tagged and sorted the relative phase of the XUV pulse pair on a single-shot basis by fitting each FEL spectrum with a suitable function that accounts for nonidealities of the XUV pulse pairs, associated with the seeding process; more generally, the fit returns the time-dependent electric field of the FEL spectra. …”
