First order phase transitions: equivalence between bimodalities and the Yang-Lee theorem [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
First order phase transitions in finite systems can be defined through the bimodality of the distribution of the order parameter. This definition is equivalent to the one based on the inverted curvature of the thermodynamic potential.

Inclusion d’étudiants à distance dans un cours universitaire en présentiel :

open access: yesDistances et Médiations des Savoirs, 2012
This article presents the results of a study which explores a specific way to link inclass and online teaching and learning that we call simultaneous bimodality: while some students are inclass with the teacher, others are attending the course online and

Extended Generalized Sinh-Normal Distribution

open access: yesMathematics, 2021
Positively skewed data sets are common in different areas, and data sets such as material fatigue, reaction time, neuronal reaction time, agricultural engineering, and spatial data, among others, need to be fitted according to their features and maintain

Capturing dopaminergic modulation and bimodal membrane behaviour of striatal medium spiny neurons in accurate, reduced models

open access: yesFrontiers in Computational Neuroscience, 2009
Loss of dopamine from the striatum can cause both profound motor deficits, as in Parkinsons's disease, and disrupt learning. Yet the effect of dopamine on striatal neurons remains a complex and controversial topic, and is in need of a comprehensive ...

A Bimodal Extension of the Epsilon-Skew-Normal Model

open access: yesMathematics, 2023
This article introduces a bimodal model based on the epsilon-skew-normal distribution. This extension generates bimodal distributions similar to those produced by the mixture of normal distributions. We study the basic properties of this new family.

The bimodal color distribution of small Kuiper Belt objects [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We conducted a two-night photometric survey of small Kuiper Belt objects (KBOs) near opposition using the wide-field Hyper Suprime-Cam instrument on the 8.2 m Subaru Telescope. The survey covered about 90 deg^2 of sky, with each field imaged in the g and

Characterizing Extratropical Tropopause Bimodality and its Relationship to the Occurrence of Double Tropopauses Using COSMIC GPS Radio Occultation Observations

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2020
Lapse rate tropopause (LRT) heights in the extratropics have been shown to display a bimodal distribution, with one modal maxima above 15 km (typical of the tropical tropopause) and the other below 13 km (typical of the extratropical tropopause).

A Tractable Fading Channel Model With Two-Sided Bimodality

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2019
This paper presents the alternate Rician shadowed (ARS) fading model, a new statistical channel model that consists of two fluctuating specular components of which only one is active at a time.

The Bimodality Principle [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Statistics Education, 2001
In statistics courses, students often find it difficult to understand the concept of a statistical test. An aggravating aspect of this problem is the seeming arbitrariness in the selection of the level of significance. In most hypothesis-testing exercises with a fixed level of significance, the students are just asked to choose the 5% level, and no ...

Bimodal Regression Model

open access: yesRevista Colombiana de Estadística, 2017
Regression analysis is a technique widely used in different areas ofhuman knowledge, with distinct distributions for the error term. Itis the case, however, that regression models with bimodal responsesor, equivalently, with the error term following a bimodal distribution are notcommon in the literature, perhaps due to the lack of simple to dealwith ...
