Amplitude Modulation of Short-timescale Hot Spot Variability

Space-eecient Hot Spot Estimation Space-eecient Hot Spot Estimation

This paper is concerned with the problem of identifying names which occur frequently in an ordered list of names. Such names are called hot spots. Hot spots can be identiied easily by counting the occurrences of each name and then selecting those with large counts. However, this simple solution requires space proportional to the number of names that occur in the list. In this paper, we present ...

Evidence for Two Distinct Morphological Classes of Gamma-ray Bursts from Their Short Timescale Variability

We have analyzed the 241 bursts for which peak counts (C)max exist in the publicly available Burst and Transient Source Experiment (BATSE) catalog. Introducing peak counts in 1024 ms as a measure of burst brightness B and the ratio of peak counts in 64 and 1024 ms as a measure of short timescale variability V , we find a statistically significant correlation between the brightness and the short...

"Hot spot" on hepatic scintigraphy [Persian]

Filling defects are often observed on 99mTc sulfur colloid liver scans. Hot spots are much less frequently seen. Superior vena cava syndrome is the most frequent cause of this finding. In this report 3 patients with S.V.C and budd - Chiari syndrome with HOT SPOT on liver scan are presented. Mechanisms of scintigraphic patterns are reviewed.

Combined Long and Short Timescale X-ray Variability of NGC 4051 with RXTE and XMM-Newton

We present a comprehensive examination of the X-ray variability of the narrow line Seyfert 1 (NLS1) galaxy NGC 4051, one of the most variable AGN in the sky. We combine over 6.5 years of frequent monitoring observations by RXTE with a > 100 ks continuous observation by XMM-Newton and so present an overall 2-10 keV powerspectral density (PSD) covering an unprecedent frequency range of over 6.5 d...
