Mass, energy and momentum at cms i2 u2Tom Loughran
The document discusses mass, energy, and momentum at the CMS detector at the LHC. It explains that:
1) At high energies, energy and momentum are practically equivalent according to the equation E2 = p2 + m2, where mass terms become negligible. This allows energy to be calculated from momentum measurements.
2) The mass of a parent particle that decays can be determined by subtracting the momentum term p2 from the total energy term E2 of its decay products, giving m2.
3) At the LHC, initial energies and momenta of collisions are not precisely known, so conservation cannot be used directly, but transverse momentum is assumed to be zero initially and its conservation is used.

Tourism Investment Opportunities in Northern UgandaTom Loughran
From the forward:
The departure of the Lord’s Resistance Army has breathed new life into northern Uganda. The region is enjoying more visitors and its reputation as a “no go” area is being gradually reversed. Improved security is allowing the rapid development of the region and generating increasing interest from businesses and tourists alike.
With this in mind, the Wildlife Conservation Society and the Uganda Tourism Association have undertaken a study, with support from USAID through the WILD programme, to gauge the potential of tourism in northern Uganda and to promote its development and expansion. The study focused on untapped or underutilized attractions in Nebbi, Arua, Moyo and Adjumani Districts in the West Nile sub-region; Amuru, Gulu, Lamwo, Kitgum and Pader Districts in the central part of the Northern Region and Kaabong District in Karamoja. Murchison Falls National Park was not included in this study in light of its already well-developed tourism infrastructure.
This publication is the result of that study and its purpose is to introduce prospective investors to the variety of natural, cultural and historical attractions in the region that can be drawn on for tourism. It also is intended to support the Ugandan government’s plans to diversify tourism products within the country – particularly along the Nile. It is our hope that it will inspire responsible private and government investment that will bring economic benefits to the local communities as well as protect and preserve the area’s varied and unique resources.
The Wildlife Conservation Society is thankful to Charles Abola and Jim Ayorekire of Image Consult for carrying out this study. We also acknowledge the valuable contributions of the Uganda Wildlife Authority, the National Forestry Authority, Uganda Museums, the Ministry of Trade, Tourism and Industry, the Ugandan Tourist Board and relevant district officials to this study, in addition to the development of Uganda’s tourism industry as a whole. We also appreciate the valuable input from private sector companies, who have shown genuine interest in the opportunities provided by northern Uganda.
A final word of thanks goes to USAID for its generous support to conservation and tourism in Uganda in general and the WILD programme in particular. It is USAID’s assistance that supported the study and allowed this brochure to be developed and printed.
Northern Uganda is open for business and tourists!

Spotlighting South Bend - December 20, 2013Tom Loughran
From the event organizer:
Dear Friend,
You are invited on Friday, December 20, 2013 to spend a day honoring the innovation that has built and is still growing South Bend.
As a community, we honor our past that relentlessly pursued the innovative spirit that built our community and embodied the name Studebaker. Fifty years ago on December 20th the lights turned off on the last Studebaker facility. However, the hard work and craftsmanship that thrived in those plants live on.
From 10:00 am to 4:30 pm, Union Station Technology Center is opening Ivy Tower (Building 84) for guided tours. The Studebaker Driver’s Club will offer special tours, with Studebaker retiree guides starting at 2:30 pm. The Studebaker Administration Building will also be available for tours from 12:00 pm to 4:30 pm. All tours will start from 635 S. Lafayette Street in South Bend. With the existing development plans, this could be one of the last times that the facility will be open for tours in its original state.
At 5:00 pm in Union Station’s grand hall, we will host an event to spotlight South Bend’s innovation. Specifically, the program will honor former Studebaker retirees, highlight current innovation in our community and point to innovation of the future.
Shortly after 6:00 pm, please join us outside Union Station, near Coveleski Stadium and throughout downtown to see our City spotlighted, demonstrating that the light of innovation that sparked our community remains on and bright today.
You are also encouraged to visit the Studebaker National Museum (free admission that day), the South Bend Museum of Art, and other downtown South Bend activities. All of the events are showcased in the attached flyer.
Please join us in spotlighting South Bend on this important day in our City’s history.
Sincerely,
Kevin M. Smith
President & CEO

5th LF Energy Power Grid Model Meet-up SlidesDanBrown980551
5th Power Grid Model Meet-up
It is with great pleasure that we extend to you an invitation to the 5th Power Grid Model Meet-up, scheduled for 6th June 2024. This event will adopt a hybrid format, allowing participants to join us either through an online Mircosoft Teams session or in person at TU/e located at Den Dolech 2, Eindhoven, Netherlands. The meet-up will be hosted by Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e), a research university specializing in engineering science & technology.
Power Grid Model
The global energy transition is placing new and unprecedented demands on Distribution System Operators (DSOs). Alongside upgrades to grid capacity, processes such as digitization, capacity optimization, and congestion management are becoming vital for delivering reliable services.
Power Grid Model is an open source project from Linux Foundation Energy and provides a calculation engine that is increasingly essential for DSOs. It offers a standards-based foundation enabling real-time power systems analysis, simulations of electrical power grids, and sophisticated what-if analysis. In addition, it enables in-depth studies and analysis of the electrical power grid’s behavior and performance. This comprehensive model incorporates essential factors such as power generation capacity, electrical losses, voltage levels, power flows, and system stability.
Power Grid Model is currently being applied in a wide variety of use cases, including grid planning, expansion, reliability, and congestion studies. It can also help in analyzing the impact of renewable energy integration, assessing the effects of disturbances or faults, and developing strategies for grid control and optimization.
What to expect
For the upcoming meetup we are organizing, we have an exciting lineup of activities planned:
-Insightful presentations covering two practical applications of the Power Grid Model.
-An update on the latest advancements in Power Grid -Model technology during the first and second quarters of 2024.
-An interactive brainstorming session to discuss and propose new feature requests.
-An opportunity to connect with fellow Power Grid Model enthusiasts and users.

4) Choosing a password
5) Choosing a “Security Question” and answer and
6) Word Verification
4. Tips: Your login name is also your email address. It should be

For example Okello Stephen might choose to use: ostephen23 as
his login name.
‐Click “Check Availability” to see if your suggested login
name has already been taken by another user
‐Choose a password that you can remember
‐Make sure it is 8 characters (numbers and letters) in
length
When you have completed the form click “I accept. Create my
account” at the bottom of the page. If you have made a mistake
Google will ask you to retype the information. As soon as you click
“Create my account” Gmail will open your email inbox.
5. C. Sending and Receiving Email
Task: At least two users should sign up for a Gmail account and proceed
to send and receive emails from each other
‐First user should go to www.gmail.com and sign into their Gmail
account
After signing in, your inbox will load and eventually open. Click on the
“Compose Mail” link at the top left portion of your page.
•
• After clicking on “Compose Mail” enter the recipients email address in
the “To” box; make sure you enter the address correctly
6. • Enter a subject in the subject box; a subject is a 1‐5 word summary of
your message, for example, many people use the subject “Hello” or
“Greetings” for messages to friends
• Enter the body of your message (the main text) in the large box.
When you are finished simply click “Send” at the bottom or top of your
message screen.
Task: Other partner should open email inbox and receive messages from users.

clarifying message here
This area is the
forwarded message
(original message) that
you are passing on to
someone else
Task: User will learn how to archive (save) old messages
‐Gmail uses a tool called “Archive” to allow users to save old messages. With
Gmail, you have tons of memory space so you never have to delete a message
(unless it is junk mail, e.g., advertising or a lottery ticket scam, which should
always be deleted to prevent viruses)
‐Archiving is simple: First open your gmail account by signing in; read your
unread messages. When you are finished just click “Archive” right above the
message.
13. Task: Users will learn how to use the Gchat application within Gmail
Gchat (aka Google Chat) is a simple application that allows you to chat
instantly with other contacts you have who are also online at the same time
as you. This is preferable to email at times because you are chatting with
them in “real‐time” rather than waiting for a response back
‐Sign into your Gmail account or open your inbox if you already are signed in
‐On the left hand side of the window, near the bottom you’ll notice a box with
your name in it with a green dot next to your name; the window should be
labeled “chat”
‐You’ll have to add contacts to your Gchat list before you can chat with them;
To add a contact, click on the “Add contact” link in your Gchat window
After clicking on “Add contact” a pop up window will emerge; input the
contact email of those you would like to chat with and press “Send
Invites”
