Multicomponent Bright Solitons in F = 2 Spinor Bose-Einstein Condensates

open access: yes, 2007
We study soliton solutions for the Gross--Pitaevskii equation of the spinor Bose--Einstein condensates with hyperfine spin F=2 in one-dimension. Analyses are made in two ways: by assuming single-mode amplitudes and by generalizing Hirota's direct method ...

Investigating the Heterogeneity of “Study Twins”

open access: yesBiometrical Journal
ABSTRACTMeta‐analyses are commonly performed based on random‐effects models, while in certain cases one might also argue in favor of a common‐effect model. One such case may be given by the example of two “study twins” that are performed according to a common (or at least very similar) protocol.

The Health Returns to Education: What Can We Learn from Twins? [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper estimates the health returns to education, using data on identical twins. I adopt a twin-differences strategy in order to obtain estimates that are not biased by unobserved family background and genetic traits that may affect both education ...

Genes, Economics, and Happiness [PDF]

open access: yes
We explore the influence of genetic variation on subjective well-being by employing a twin design and genetic association study. In a nationally-representative twin sample, we first show that about 33% of the variation in life satisfaction is explained ...

Unobserved heterogeneity in a model with cure fraction applied to breast cancer [PDF]

open access: yes
We suggest a cure-mixture model to analyze bivariate time-to-event data, as motivated by the paper of Chatterjee and Shih (2001, Biometrics 57, 779 - 786), but with a simpler estimation procedure and the correlated gamma-frailty model instead of the ...
