Statistical Models for Globular Cluster Luminosity Distribution
We consider statistical models which have been proposed for luminosity distributions for the globular clusters in the Milky Way and M31. Although earlier research showed that the cluster luminosity functions in those two galaxies were well fit by Gaussian distributions, subsequent investigations suggested that their luminosities were better fit by t-, rather than Gaussian, distributions. By app...
متن کاملNew Statistical Insights of Globular Cluster Systems
Globular clusters are cosmological fossils, revealing the history of the universe and galaxies. Some galaxies are found to have multiple generations of globular clusters. Traditionally, these multiple epochs of cluster formation have been detected through graphical methods. In this presentation, we discuss statistical model selection to determine the number of components in globular cluster sys...
متن کاملMonte Carlo Simulations of Globular Cluster Dynamics
We have developed a new parallel supercomputer code based on Hénon’s Monte Carlo method for simulating the dynamical evolution of globular clusters. This new code allows us to calculate the evolution of a cluster containing a realistic number of stars (N ∼ 10 − 10) in about a day of computing time. The discrete, star-by-star representation of the cluster in the simulation allows us to treat nat...
متن کاملBinary Stars and Globular Cluster Dynamics
In this brief proceedings article I summarize the review talk I gave at the IAU 246 meeting in Capri, Italy, glossing over the well-known results from the literature, but paying particular attention to new, previously unpublished material. This new material includes a careful comparison of the apparently contradictory results of two independent methods used to simulate the evolution of binary p...
متن کاملStatistical inference for nonparametric GARCH models
We consider extensions of the famous GARCH(1, 1) model where the recursive equation for the volatilities is not specified by a parametric link but by a smooth autoregression function. Our goal is to estimate this function under nonparametric constraints when the volatilities are observed with multiplicative innovation errors. We construct an estimation procedure whose risk attains the usual con...
