A Bayesian Methodology for Estimating Uncertainty of Decisions in Safety-Critical Systems
Vitaly Schetinin, Jonathan Fieldsend, Derek Partridge +4
Uncertainty of decisions in safety-critical engineering applications can be estimated on the basis of the Bayesian Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) technique of averaging over decis…
The relation between gas and dust in the Taurus Molecular Cloud
Jorge L. Pineda, Paul F. Goldsmith, Nicholas Chapman +4
(abridged) We report a study of the relation between dust and gas over a 100deg^2 area in the Taurus molecular cloud. We compare the H2 column density derived from dust extinction…
The Lyot Project Direct Imaging Survey of Substellar Companions: Statistical Analysis and Information from Nondetections
Jérémy leconte, Rémi Soummer, Sasha Hinkley +14
The Lyot project used an optimized Lyot coronagraph with Extreme Adaptive Optics at the 3.63m Advanced Electro-Optical System telescope (AEOS) to observe 86 stars from 2004 to 2007…
The Sloan Digital Sky Survey Quasar Lens Search. IV. Statistical Lens Sample from the Fifth Data Release
Naohisa Inada, Masamune Oguri, Min-Su Shin +20
We present the second report of our systematic search for strongly lensed quasars from the data of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). From extensive follow-up observations of 136…
The evaluation of directionally writhing polymers
C B Prior, M A Berger
We discuss the appropriate techniques for modelling the geometry of open ended elastic polymer molecules. The molecule is assumed to have fixed endpoints on a boundary surface. In…
A Synthetic 21-cm Galactic Plane Survey of an SPH Galaxy Simulation
Kevin A. Douglas, David M. Acreman, Clare L. Dobbs +1
We have created synthetic neutral hydrogen (HI) Galactic Plane Survey data cubes covering 90 degrees < l < 180 degrees, using a model spiral galaxy from SPH simulations and the rad…
