ARIA 2016: Care pathways implementing emerging technologies for predictive medi...
Bousquet, J.; Hellings, P. W.; Agache, I.; Bedbrook, A.; Bachert, C.; Bergmann, K. C.; Bewick, M.; Bindslev-Jensen, C.; Bosnic-Anticevitch, S.The Allergic Rhinitis and its Impact on Asthma (ARIA) initiative commenced during a World Health Organization workshop in 1999. The initial goals were (1) to propose a new allergic rhinitis classification, (2) to promote the concept of multi-morbidity in asthma and rhinitis and (3) to develop guidelines with all stakeholders that could be used globally for all countries and populations. ARIA-disseminated and im...

Bousquet, J.; Farrell, J.; Crooks, G.; Hellings, P.; Bel, E. H.; Bewick, M.; Chavannes, N. H.; de Sousa, J. Correia; Cruz, A. A.; Haahtela, T.; Joos, G.Action Plan B3 of the European Innovation Partnership on Active and Healthy Ageing (EIP on AHA) focuses on the integrated care of chronic diseases. Area 5 (Care Pathways) was initiated using chronic respiratory diseases as a model. The chronic respiratory disease action plan includes (1) AIRWAYS integrated care pathways (ICPs), (2) the joint initiative between the Reference site MACVIA-LR (Contre les MAladies C...
Measurements of neutrons produced by high-energy muons at the Boulby Undergroun...
Araújo, H. M.; Blockley, J.; Bungau, C.; Carson, M. J.; Chagani, H.; Daw, E.; Edwards, B.; Ghag, C.; Korolkova, E. V.; Kudryavtsev, V. A.We present the first measurements of the muon-induced neutron flux at the Boulby Underground Laboratory. The experiment was carried out with an 0.73 tonne liquid scintillator that also served as an anticoincidence system for the ZEPLIN-II direct dark matter search. The experimental method exploited the delayed coincidences between high-energy muon signals and gamma-rays from radiative neutron capture on hydroge...

The ZEPLIN II dark matter detector: Data acquisition system and data reduction
Alner, G. J.; Araújo, H. M.; Bewick, A.; Bungau, C.; Camanzi, B.; Carson, M. J.; Chagani, H.; Chepel, V.; Cline, D.; Davidge, D.; Davies, J. C.; Daw, E.ZEPLIN II is a two-phase (liquid/gas) xenon dark matter detector searching for WIMP-nucleon interactions. In this paper we describe the data acquisition system used to record the data from ZEPLIN II and the reduction procedures which parameterise the data for subsequent analysis.; http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/B6TJM-4R40SHG-9/1/eea3463e234b214a8a5d521b721d303a
Preliminary results on position reconstruction for ZEPLIN III
Lindote, A.; Araújo, H. M.; Cunha, J. Pinto da; Akimov, D. Yu.; Chepel, V.; Davidge, D.; Dawson, J. V.; Joshi, M.; Lebedenko, V. N.; Liubarsky, I.ZEPLIN III is a two-phase xenon detector for direct dark matter search that will look for rare nuclear recoils from elastic scattering of Weakly Interacting Massive Particles off xenon atoms. ZEPLIN III measures both the scintillation and ionisation signals produced in the liquid by the interacting particle. The prompt scintillation is detected by an array of 31 photomultipliers (PM) immersed in the liquid, and...
The ZEPLIN III Detector; Results from Surface Calibrations
Sumner, T. J.; Akimov, D. Yu.; Alner, G. J.; Araújo, H. M.; Bewick, A.; Bungau, C.; Burenkov, A. A.; Carson, M. J.; Chagani, H.; Chepel, V.; Cline, D.ZEPLIN-III is a direct dark-matter search instrument using liquid xenon as a target.Both the scintillation light and the ionisation charge are measured.The instrument has been built and it is currently being testing in a surface laboratory.We present results from some of the initial testing, including design thermal control system verification, photomultiplier calibration (including spectral measurements with 6...
The ZEPLIN-III dark matter detector: Instrument design, manufacture and commiss...
Akimov, D. Yu.; Alner, G. J.; Araújo, H. M.; Bewick, A.; Bungau, C.; Burenkov, A. A.; Carson, M. J.; Chagani, H.; Chepel, V.; Cline, D.; Davidge, D.We present details of the technical design, manufacture and testing of the ZEPLIN-III dark matter experiment. ZEPLIN-III is a two-phase xenon detector which measures both the scintillation light and the ionisation charge generated in the liquid by interacting particles and radiation. The instrument design is driven by both the physics requirements and by the technology requirements surrounding the use of liquid...

Alner, G. J.; Araújo, H. M.; Bewick, A.; Bungau, C.; Camanzi, B.; Carson, M. J.; Cashmore, R. J.; Chagani, H.; Chepel, V.; Cline, D.; Davidge, D.Results are presented from the first underground data run of ZEPLIN-II, a 31 kg two-phase xenon detector developed to observe nuclear recoils from hypothetical weakly interacting massive dark matter particles. Discrimination between nuclear recoils and background electron recoils is afforded by recording both the scintillation and ionisation signals generated within the liquid xenon, with the ratio of these sig...
