Are There Machos in the Milky Way Halo?
Microlensing searches aim to detect compact halo dark matter via its gravitational lensing effect on stars within the Large Magellanic Cloud. The most recent results have led to the claim that a significant fraction of the galactic halo dark matter may be in the form of compact, solar-mass objects. We analyze this hypothesis by considering the goodness-of-fit of the best-fit halo dark matter so...

There is growing evidence that there are more—perhaps many more. The idea that there are four basic tastes goes back at least as far as ancient Greece, so if there are more than four basic tastes why haven't t...
متن کاملHow many species are there?

Different methods of answering this question are examined and include: counting all species; extrapolations from known faunas and regions; extrapolations from samples; methods using ecological models; censusing taxonomists' views. Most of these methods indicate that global tot...
متن کاملHow many words are there?
The commonsensical assumption that any language has only finitely many words is shown to be false by a combination of formal and empirical arguments. Zipf's Law and related formulas are investigated and a more complex model is offered.
متن کاملHow Many Types Are There?
We consider an revealed preference based method which will partition consumer microdata into an approximate minimal number of preference types such that the data are perfectly rationalisable by standard utility theory. This provides a simple, nonparametric and theory-driven way of investigating unobserved preference heterogeneity in empirical data, and easily extends to any choice model which h...
