The interior transmission problem is a boundary value problem that plays a basic role in inverse scattering theory but unfortunately does not seem to be included in any existing theory in partial differential equations.This paper presents old and new results for the interior transmission problem ,in particular its relation to inverse scattering theory and new results on the spectral theory asso...

Using the method proposed in a previous paper, we calculate pulsar braking indices in the models with torque contributions from both inner and outer accelerating regions, assuming that the interaction between them is negligible. We suggest that it is likely that the inverse Compton scattering induced polar vacuum gap and the outer gap coexist in the pulsar magnetosphere. We include the new near...

The Maier-Saupe theory is employed in order to calculate order parameters (P 2 ) , (P4) f rom the nematic potential q. The relation between <r=q/(RT) and S = (P2) corresponds well with a recently established formula by Kalmykov. The relation between the order parameters is in accordance with the analytic expression (P4)=5/l (P2) proposed by Zanonni, but deviates significantly f rom the Faber mo...

A scanning water Raman-lidar has been designed and constructed to study surface-atmosphere processes with high spatial and temporal resolution. Analytical methods are also being developed to analyze the information this lidar can take. The lidar is able to measure the absolute water content and then calculate evaporative fluxes and other atmospheric parameters quickly over relatively large area...
