Article Abstract
BINGO (BAO from Integrated Neutral Gas Observations) is a unique radio telescope designed to map the intensity of neutral hydrogen distribution at cosmological distances, making the first detection of Baryon Acoustic Oscillations (BAO) in the frequency band 980 MHz - 1260 MHz, corresponding to a redshift range 0.127 < z < 0.449. BAO is one of the most powerful probes of cosmological parameters and BINGO was designed to detect the BAO signal to a level that makes it possible to put new constraints on the equation of state of dark energy. The telescope will be built in Paraíba, Brazil and consists of two \thicksim 40m mirrors, a feedhorn array of 50 horns, and no moving parts, working as a drift-scan instrument. It will cover a 15 ^{\circ} ∘ declination strip centered at \sim \delta ∼ δ =-15 ^{\circ} ∘ , mapping \sim ∼ 5400 square degrees in the sky. The BINGO consortium is led by University of São Paulo with co-leadership at National Institute for Space Research and Campina Grande Federal University (Brazil). Telescope subsystems have already been fabricated and tested, and the dish and structure fabrication are expected to start in late 2020, as well as the road and terrain preparation.

Background: With the advancement of ultra-short pulse technology and the rapid progress of FLASH radiotherapy, it is clinically desirable and technically possible to utilize the radiation acoustic effect of radiotherapy pulses for noninvasive real-time in vivo dose monitoring.
Purpose: As a crucial foundation of in vivo dose monitoring using laser-accelerated proton acoustics, this study focuses on measuring, analyzing, and processing the acoustic signals to precisely position the Bragg peak of laser-accelerated monoenergetic proton pulses.
Materials And Methods: Nanosecond-scale high-energy broadband proton bunches were produced from the interaction of ultra-intense femtosecond laser pulses with thin film targets.

The cosmic microwave background (CMB) and baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO) are two of the most robust observations in cosmology. The recent BAO measurements from the DESI collaboration have presented, for the first time, inconsistency between BAO and CMB within the standard cosmological model ΛCDM, indicating a preference for dynamical dark energy over a cosmological constant. We analyze the theoretical implication of the DESI BAO observation for dark energy and gravity employing a nonparametric reconstruction approach for both the dark energy equation of state w_{DE}(a) and the effective field theory coefficients.

Density perturbations have recently been shown to lead to a novel effect in the freeze-out of heavy particles called "acoustically driven freeze-out." This leads to an enhancement in the yield in standard leptogenesis. We extend this calculation to include washout processes in type-I leptogenesis and the Sommerfeld-enhanced gauge annihilations in type-II and type-III leptogenesis.

Spikes of high temperature and pressure are created in the vicinity of heavy ions, especially at the Bragg peak. The expected subsequent thermoacoustic effects are however not well understood. In particular, the distribution of the densely packed primary interactions has not been considered in molecular dynamics (MDs) simulations or shock wave solutions.

We introduce a new method for measuring the Hubble parameter from low-redshift large-scale observations that is independent of the comoving sound horizon. The method uses the baryon-to-photon ratio determined by the primordial deuterium abundance, together with big bang nucleosynthesis calculations and the present-day cosmic microwave background (CMB) temperature, to determine the physical baryon density Ω_{b}h^{2}. The baryon fraction Ω_{b}/Ω_{m} is measured using the relative amplitude of the baryonic signature in galaxy clustering measured by the Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey, scaling the physical baryon density to the physical matter density.
