Mixed Strategies in Simultaneous and Sequential Play of a 2 Player Game [PDF]

open access: yes
We take a class of games with two players and two actions which only have mixed strategy Nash equilibria. We show that such games can only have hybrid equilibria if played sequentially with one player moving first. The hybrid equilibrium has the leader p

The consequences of nuclear electron capture in core collapse supernovae

open access: yes, 2003
The most important weak nuclear interaction to the dynamics of stellar core collapse is electron capture, primarily on nuclei with masses larger than 60. In prior simulations of core collapse, electron capture on these nuclei has been treated in a highly
