Next: A Universal Diagram for Up: ``Ecology'' of Magnetic Rotators Previous: The Corotation Radius . The interaction of a magnetic rotator with the surrounding plasma to a large extent depends on the relation between the four characteristic radii: the stopping radius, , the gravitational capture radius,   , the light cylinder radius,   , and the corotation radius,   . ... Hence, the classification of the interaction regimes may well mean the classification of magnetic rotators. ...

... Archives . ... If you do not mind the time predictor, it is hard to believe that this is a light curve, time dependent data. ... It?s hard to say this data set is designed for time series analysis apart from the complication in statistical inference due to measurement errors. How to design the statistical study with measurement errors, huge gaps in time, and unequal time intervals is complex and unexplored. ... The following is R output without measurement errors. ...

The efficiency of interaction of radiation with a particle and hence its optical properties depend on the particle chemical composition, size, shape, structure, etc. ... Particle size expressed in units of the wavelength of incident radiation, together with chemical composition, most strongly affects the optical properties of a scatterer. ... There are many methods to solve the light-scattering problem for a homogeneous spheroid (our survey of the light-scattering methods see here ). ...

Correspondence Analysis may be described as a PCA in a different metric (the metric replaces the usual Euclidean metric). ... While PCA is particularly suitable for quantitative data, CA is recommendable for the following types of input data, which will subsequently be looked at more closely: frequencies, contingency tables, probabilities, categorical data, and mixed qualitative/categorical data. ...

Authors: Yu.G. Shevelev , V.A. Marsakov , . ... We have constructed and investigated properties of metallicity function of disk stars with different ages, proceeding from the statistically restored real altitude distributions of stars at the solar galactocentric distance. It is shown that the metallicity distribution of stars in each age range is not of Gaussian form, but it may be considered as a superposition of two normal distributions centered at -0.2 and 0.0 dex. ...

... The orbit of this fragment H is considered as that of the maternal body. ... We have estimated the diameters of the maternal body for the different moments of disintegration. ... The 182 computations show that the maternal body of the nucleus was of 1.24 km in diameter, if its disintegration happened at the closest approach of the comet to Jupiter, and of 9.73 km, if the nucleus had been disintegrated two hours before the moment of approach. ...

... Formulas are very similar to equations. Consider for now only equations with one unknown variable , denoted by some letter, which can be x but can also be different. An equation is an equality between two mathematical expressions containing the unknown number (maybe in several places), as well as other numbers which are known. ... For instance--if you multiply two sides of a formula by the same number, the result is still a valid formula, even if what you multiply contains unknown numbers. ...
