Cosmological large-scale structure analyses based on two-point correlation functions often assume a Gaussian likelihood function with a fixed covariance matrix.We study the impact on cosmological parameter estimation of ignoring the parameter dependence of this covariance matrix, focusing on the particular case of joint weak-lensing and galaxy clus
Asphalt coatings are the most commonly used in paving services in Brazil, explained by the availability of material and the applicability of the technique.Throughout their service life, pavements are subject to traffic stresses that cause damage to the coating, most commonly fatigue cracking and permanent deformation.Thus, the need for new pavement
The aim of this work was to investigate the microencapsulation efficiency (MEE) of different grades of broken rice (RB) and breadfruit (BB)-based maltodextrin as a coating material, using virgin coconut oil (VCO) as a model system.The VCO was generally found to be well microencapsulated using BB, RB or commercial (COM) maltodextrin at a core/wall m
