Non-abelian electrodynamics and the vacuumB (3)

By using an 0(3) gauge group, a non-Abelian theory of vacuum electrodynamics is developed in which the newly discovered longitudinal vacuum fieldsB ⁽³⁾ andi E ⁽³⁾ appear self-consistently with the usual plane wavesB ⁽¹⁾,B ⁽²⁾,E ⁽¹⁾, andE ⁽²⁾ in the circular basis (1), (2), (3), a complex representation of space. Using the charge quantization condition the vacuum Maxwell equations are given in the non-Abelian representation.

The distribution of the likelihood ratio for mixtures of densities from the one-parameter exponential family

We here consider testing the hypothesis ofhomogeneity against the alternative of a two-component mixture of densities. The paper focuses on the asymptotic null distribution of 2 log _n , where _n is the likelihood ratio statistic. The main result, obtained by simulation, is that its limiting distribution appears pivotal (in the sense of constant percentiles over the unknown parameter), but model specific (differs if the model is changed from Poisson to normal, say), and is not at all well approximated by the conventional ₍₂₎ ² -distribution obtained by counting parameters. In Section 3, the binomial with sample size parameter 2 is considered. Via a simple geometric characterization the case for which the likelihood ratio is 1 can easily be identified and the corresponding probability is found. Closed form expressions for the likelihood ratio _n are possible and the asymptotic distribution of 2 log _n is shown to be the mixture giving equal weights to the one point distribution with all its mass equal to zero and the ²-distribution with 1 degree of freedom. A similar result is reached in Section 4 for the Poisson with a small parameter value (0.1), although the geometric characterization is different. In Section 5 we consider the Poisson case in full generality. There is still a positive asymptotic probability that the likelihood ratio is 1. The upper precentiles of the null distribution of 2 log _n are found by simulation for various populations and shown to be nearly independent of the population parameter, and approximately equal to the (1–2)100 percentiles of ₍₁₎ ² . In Sections 6 and 7, we close with a study of two continuous densities, theexponential and thenormal with known variance. In these models the asymptotic distribution of 2 log _n is pivotal. Selected (1–) 100 percentiles are presented and shown to differ between the two models.     

Bayesian sequential reliability for Weibull and related distributions

Assume that the probability density function for the lifetime of a newly designed product has the form: [H(t)/Q()] exp{–H(t)/Q()}. The Exponential(), Rayleigh, WeibullW(, ) and Pareto pdf's are special cases.Q() will be assumed to have an inverse Gamma prior. Assume thatm independent products are to be tested with replacement. A Bayesian Sequential Reliability Demonstration Testing plan is used to eigher accept the product and start formal production, or reject the product for reengineering. The test criterion is the intersection of two goals, a minimal goal to begin production and a mature product goal. The exact values of various risks and the distribution of total number of failures are evaluated. Based on a result about a Poisson process, the expected stopping time for the exponential failure time is also found. Included in these risks and expected stopping times are frequentist versions, thereof, so that the results also provide frequentist answers for a class of interesting stopping rules.This research was supported by NSF grants DMS-8703620 and DMS-8923071, and forms part of the Ph.D. Thesis of the first author, the development of which was supported in part by a David Ross grant at Purdue University.

The relative importance of temperature and isotope effects on the dipole oscillator strength distribution of H2

Summary The calculation of the effects of temperature and isotopic composition on the energy weighted moments of the dipole oscillator strength distribution of H₂ in the random phase approximation to the polarization propagator are reported. It is seen that the effect of isotopic composition is small, while that of temperature is of an order accessible to experiment. We find that all the mean excitation energiesI , for =–1, 0, 1, decrease with temperature as does the dipole oscillator strength momentS() for >0, while the opposite is true for <0. These effects are interpreted in terms of the bond length dependence of the excitation energies.     

Exponential distributions on semigroups

Three fundamental characterizations of the standard exponential distribution on [0, ) are the remaining life, memoryless and constant failure properties. Analogs of these properties are studied for distributions on a class of semigroups in which the semigroup operation replaces addition, a compatible partial order replaces the ordinary order, and a left-invariant measure replaces Lebesgue measure. Partial characterizations of exponential distributions on such semigroups are obtained and the semigroup formulation provides new characterizations of certain aging properties studied in reliability-increasing failure rate, new better than used, and increasing failure rate average.     

The diagnonal multivariate natural exponential families and their classification

A natural exponential family (NEF)F in ? ⁿ ,n>1, is said to be diagonal if there existn functions,a ₁,...,a _n , on some intervals of ?, such that the covariance matrixV _F (m) ofF has diagonal (a ₁(m ₁),...,a _n (m _n )), for allm=(m ₁,...,m _n ) in the mean domain ofF. The familyF is also said to be irreducible if it is not the product of two independent NEFs in ? ^k and ? ^n-k , for somek=1,...,n?1. This paper shows that there are only six types of irreducible diagonal NEFs in ? ⁿ , that we call normal, Poisson, multinomial, negative multinomial, gamma, and hybrid. These types, with the exception of the latter two, correspond to distributions well established in the literature. This study is motivated by the following question: IfF is an NEF in ? ⁿ , under what conditions is its projectionp(F) in ? ^k , underp(x ₁,...,x _n )∶=(x ₁,...,x _k ),k=1,...,n?1, still an NEF in ? ^k ? The answer turns out to be rather predictable. It is the case if, and only if, the principalk×k submatrix ofV _F (m ₁,...,m _n ) does not depend on (m _k+1,...,m _n ).     

固体激光器晶体吸收光场的设计仿真

设计了3类8种二极管侧面泵浦结构,构建了相应的泵浦光学理论模型,采用有限元分析方法,计算了不同结构下的吸收效率和矩阵元素标准差。首先,在给定泵浦总功率、芯片间距、掺杂浓度等前提下,随着泵浦距离在0～5 mm内递增,8种泵浦结构中激光晶体的吸收效率呈降低趋势,矩阵元素标准差也逐渐减小,其中部分结构在近距离(0～0.3 mm)泵浦时矩阵元素标准差变化程度较大,在实际应用中应避免泵浦距离处于近距离区间。其次,在相同结构参量下,随着晶体掺杂浓度在0.6%～1.0%内增加,激光晶体的吸收效率提高,同时,掺杂浓度提升也是造成截面中心峰值降低或半径方向上光场凹陷的原因。因此,掺杂浓度和泵浦距离的匹配将是提升半径方向上均匀性分布的有效手段。     

一种基于SPWVD-WVD的高质量时频分析方法及ISAR成像应用

交叉项干扰抑制与高时频聚集度是准确反应信号的时频分布特征的重要因素。传统的魏格纳-维尔分布(Wigner-Ville Distribution,WVD)算法虽能获得较高的时频分辨特征,但分析多成分信号时存在严重的交叉项干扰问题,限制了其实用性;而平滑伪魏格纳-维尔分布(Smoothed Pseudo Wigner-Ville Distribution,SPWVD)算法虽在一定程度上抑制交叉项干扰,但降低了时频聚集度。为了解决上述问题,提出了基于SPWVD-WVD的时频分析方法。该方法利用SPWVD与WVD之间的滤波互消效应,将SPWVD二值化结果与WVD结果进行矩阵运算,最终得到高质量的时频分析结果。实验结果表明,所提出的算法能够有效去除多分量信号的交叉项干扰,提高信号分析结果的时频聚集度,还原多分量信号的真实时频分布。最后将该算法成功应用于逆合成孔径雷达成像中。
