Explaining the Lyman-alpha forest
It is shown that many properties of Lyα forest absorbers can be derived using simple physical arguments. Analytical expressions are derived for the density and the size of an absorber as a function of its neutral hydrogen column density, which agree well with both observations and hydrodynamical simulations. An expression is presented to compute ΩIGM from the observed column density distributio...
متن کاملAssessment of funnel plot asymmetry and publication bias in reproductive health meta-analyses: an analytic survey
BACKGROUND Despite efforts to assure high methodological standards, systematic reviews may be affected by publication bias. The objective of this study was to evaluate the occurrence of publication bias in a collection of high quality systematic reviews on reproductive health. METHODS Systematic reviews included in the Reproductive Health Library (RHL), issue No 9, were assessed. Funnel plot ...

متن کامل– 1 – Review of Charm Dalitz Plot Analyses
The formalism of Dalitz-Plot analysis is reviewed in the preceeding note. Table 1 lists reported analyses of D mesons. In the following, we discuss a number of subjects of current interest: (1) D0 → K0 Sππ; (2) D → πππ: a σ(500) or f0(600); (3) D+ → K−π+π+: a κ(800)? (4) the f0(980), f0(1370) and f0(1500); (5) doubly Cabibbo-suppressed decays; and (6) CP violation. D0 → K0 Sππ: Several experime...
