非线性激光场中量子噪声之间的耦合效应

用二维气体激光模型对量子噪声的实部和虚部存在耦合的激光场进行了理论分析，通过福克－普朗克方程导出了定态激光光场强度和位相的分布函数，算出了定态激光强度和位相的平均值，方差和偏斜度，与量子噪声的两个分量为独立随机变量的激光场相比，噪声间的耦合极大地改变了激光场强度和位相的涨落，并引起了激光场强度与位相之间的耦合。     

Pattern recognition display methods for the analysis of computed molecular properties

Summary Pattern recognition methods, particularly the unsupervised learning techniques, are well suited for the preliminary analysis of the large data sets produced by computer chemistry. The use of linear and non-linear display methods for such exploratory analysis are exemplified with the aid of two data sets of biologically active molecules. Advantages and disadvantages of these techniques are discussed.

On Hsu's theorem in multivariate regression

The paper deals with optimal quadratic unbiased estimation of the unknown dispersion matrix in multivariate regression models without assuming normality of the errors. We show that Hsu's theorem for univariate regression models continues to multivariate models with no additional assumptions. Furthermore optimal quadratic plus linear estimating functions for regression coefficients are considered, and we investigate whether the ordinary linear estimates are the best. This leads to a new theorem which is similar to that of Hsu.     

Orbits of Positive Operators from a Differentiable Viewpoint

Let be a unital C^*-algebra and G the group of units of . A geometrical study of the action of G over the set ⁺ of all positive elements of is presented. The orbits of elements with closed range by this action are provided with a structure of differentiable homogeneous space with a natural connection. The orbits are partitioned in 'components' which also have a rich geometrical structure.     

Amplification Coefficient of the Anti‐Stokes Component of Raman Scattering

The theory of intracavity parametric interaction of the components of Raman scattering is developed in the prescribedintensity approximation, which takes into account the reverse reaction of the excited waves to the pumpingwave phase. It is shown that one can substantially improve the conversion efficiency or the amplification coefficient of the antiStokes component by selection of the intracavity geometry, the optimum phase relation between the interacting waves, the pumping level, and the phase mismatch.     

Statistical Inference in a Linear Model for Spatially Located Sensors and Random Input

In the paper we consider a random linear model for observations provided by spatially located sensors measuring signals coming from one source. For this model a set of sufficient and complete statistics are found, and it is shown that the maximum likelihood estimators of unknown parameters (characteristics of the source) are functions of those statistics. The problem of nonnegative estimators of variance components of the model is shortly discussed. Comparisons of the mean squared errors of several estimators are given. Numerical example concerning hunting for defects in solar cells is considered in details.     

ESR spectroscopy as a tool for identifying joining fragments of antique marbles: the example of a pulpit by Donatello and Michelozzo

ESR spectroscopy is one of the physicochemical techniques used to characterize archaeological white marbles and obtain information about their quarries of provenance. This is done by measuring selected spectral features of the Mn(2+) impurity ubiquitously present in marbles and developing a statistical classification rule from the variable vectors measured for a significant number of samples of known provenance (the quarry database). Now we show that the overall variability exhibited by the same spectroscopic features decreases rapidly with the linear dimensions of the sampled block and can be used to distinguish fragments belonging to the same piece of stone from those simply originating from the same quarry. Application of the method to the seven marble panels of the Donatello pulpit in Prato (Tuscany) shows that they have all been cut from the same single block and their different degradation must be ascribed to differential weathering and to the different conservation treatments undergone in the past. The limits and possible drawbacks of the method are also discussed.
