A New Frequency-Luminosity Relation for Long GRBs?

T. N. Ukwatta, K. S. Dhuga, D. C. Morris +7

We have studied power density spectra (PDS) of 206 long Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs). We fitted the PDS with a simple power-law and extracted the exponent of the power-law (alpha) and t…

Hilbert Space Representations of Decoherence Functionals and Quantum Measures

Stan Gudder

We show that any decoherence functional can be represented by a spanning vector-valued measure on a complex Hilbert space. Moreover, this representation is unique up to an isom…
