Time Dilation from Spectral Feature Age Measurements of Type Ia Supernovae [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
We have developed a quantitative, empirical method for estimating the age of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) from a single spectral epoch. The technique examines the goodness of fit of spectral features as a function of the temporal evolution of a large ...

Seismic ground motion variations resulting from site conditions

open access: yesGeodesy and Geodynamics, 2014
Amplification of seismic ground motions in the territory of Almaty city is evaluated by using different methods. The pattern and probable causes of ground motion variations in different engineering-geological conditions are characterized.

Developing Hyperspectral Indices for Assessing Seasonal Variations in the Ratio of Chlorophyll to Carotenoid in Deciduous Forests

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
Leaf pigments are sensitive to various stress conditions and senescent stages. Variation in the ratio of chlorophyll to carotenoid content provides valuable insights into the understanding of the physiological and phenological status of plants in ...

Spectral variability of the particulate backscattering ratio

open access: yesOptics Express, 2007
The spectral dependency of the particulate backscattering ratio is relevant in the fields of ocean color inversion, light field modeling, and inferring particle properties from optical measurements. Aside from theoretical predictions for spherical, homogeneous particles, we have very limited knowledge of the actual in situ spectral variability of the ...

Spectral Density Ratio Models for Multivariate Extremes [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the American Statistical Association, 2014
The modeling of multivariate extremes has received increasing recent attention because of its importance in risk assessment. In classical statistics of extremes, the joint distribution of two or more extremes has a nonparametric form, subject to moment constraints.

Precision Measurement of the Radiative $\Beta$ Decay of the Free Neutron [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The standard model predicts that, in addition to a proton, an electron, and an antineutrino, a continuous spectrum of photons is emitted in the $\beta$ decay of the free neutron. We report on the RDK II experiment which measured the photon spectrum using

Clutter Mitigation Based on Spectral Depolarization Ratio for Dual-Polarization Weather Radars

open access: yesIEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2021
In this article, a spectral polarimetric filter named moving spectral depolarization ratio (MsDR) filter is proposed to mitigate the effects of clutter and noise for dual-polarization weather radar without cross-polar measurements. The filter is based on

Observational constraint on the fourth derivative of the inflaton potential [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
We consider the flow-equations for the 3 slow-roll parameters n_S (scalar spectral index), r (tensor to scalar ratio), and dn_S/dlnk (running of the spectral index).

Layering contrasting photoselective filters improves the simulation of foliar shade

open access: yesPlant Methods, 2022
Background Neutral density shade cloth is commonly used for simulating foliar shade, in which it reduces light intensity without altering spectral quality.

Using Spectral Radius Ratio for Node Degree to Analyze the Evolution of Scale Free Networks and Small World Networks

open access: yes, 2015
In this paper, we show the evaluation of the spectral radius for node degree as the basis to analyze the variation in the node degrees during the evolution of scale-free networks and small-world networks.
