Are the Tails of Percolation Thresholds Gaussians ?
P. M. C. de Oliveira, R. A. Nobrega, D. Stauffer
The probability distribution of percolation thresholds in finite lattices were first believed to follow a normal Gaussian behaviour. With increasing computer power and more efficie…

Corrections to Finite Size Scaling in Percolation
P. M. C. de Oliveira, R. A. Nobrega, D. Stauffer
A 1/L-expansion for percolation problems is proposed, where L is the lattice finite length. The square lattice with 27 different sizes L = 18, 22 ... 1594 is considered. Certain sp…

Distribution of Traffic Penalties in Rio de Janeiro
Rafaella A. Nobrega, Cricia C. Rodegheri, Renato C. Povoas
Brazilian drivers caught in traffic violations accumulate points in their official personal files. Here, we analyse the distribution probability of these data, for the state of Rio…
