Random discrete probability measures based on a negative binomial process

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Statistics, EarlyView.
Abstract A distinctive functional of the Poisson point process is the negative binomial process for which the increments are not independent but are independent conditional on an underlying gamma variable. Using a new point process representation for the negative binomial process, we generalize the Poisson–Kingman distribution and its corresponding ...

Properties of bars in the local universe

open access: yes, 2008
We studied the fraction and properties of bars in a sample of about 3000 galaxies extracted from SDSS-DR5. This represents a volume limited sample with galaxies located between redshift 0.01-20, and inclination i < 60.

Effect of Background Magnetic Field on Ion Weibel Instability With High‐Intensity Short‐Pulse Lasers

open access: yesContributions to Plasma Physics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The effect of finite background magnetic field on magnetic field amplification by Weibel instability using high‐intensity short‐pulse lasers is investigated. We consider Weibel instability for counter‐streaming sub‐relativistic plasma flows generated by shooting pure carbon targets with short‐pulse lasers.

A review of multiscale numerical modeling of rock mechanics and rock engineering

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Multiscale numerical methods of rock mechanics and rock engineering are reviewed, and the review results show that more attention should be paid to the development of an advanced constitutive model in addition to numerical techniques themselves. Abstract Rock is geometrically and mechanically multiscale in nature, and the traditional phenomenological ...

Quality of life in heart failure. The heart of the matter. A scientific statement of the Heart Failure Association and the European Association of Preventive Cardiology of the European Society of Cardiology

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Heart Failure, EarlyView.
For most patients with chronic, progressive illnesses, maintaining good quality of life (QoL), with preserved functional capacity, is just as crucial as prolonging survival. Patients with heart failure (HF) experience much worse QoL and effort intolerance than both the general population and people with other chronic conditions, since they present a ...

Are galaxies extending?

open access: yesPhysics Letters B, 2009
It is suggested that the recently observed size evolution of very massive compact galaxies in the early universe can be explained, if dark matter is in Bose Einstein condensate. In this model the size of the dark matter halos and galaxies depends on the correlation length of dark matter and, hence, on the the expansion of the universe.
