• (inter-arrival times and arrival times) – Arrival times T1,T2, · · · are i.i.d. and have Exp(λ) distribution. – The kth arrival time Yk = T1 + · · · + Tk is called to have the Erlang distribution of order k. • (merging of Poisson processes) If (At ) and (Bt ) are independent Poisson processes of rate α and β, resp., then – Nt = At + Bt is a Poisson process of rate λ = α + β. – If (Xn )∞ n=1 i...

The influence of moisture sorption on spin–spin (T2) relaxation times for skim milk powder (SMP), protein concentrates (MPC50 and MPC80) amorphous lactose was studied by low-field nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). For MPC80, only one main peak observed in the T2 distribution, whereas SMP MCP50, two peaks, relating to water associated with protein, were at aw <0.4; >0.4 crystallised no visible s...

Ve study the problem of testing for equality at a fixed point in the setting of nonparametric estimation of a monotone function. The likelihood ratio test for this hypothesis is derived in the particular case of interval censoring (or current status data) and its limiting distribution is obtained. The limiting distribution is that of the integral of the difference of the squared slope processes...

Primary palmar hyperhidrosis is a disorder of excessive perspiration. In severe cases it can be socially and professionally debilitating and conservative therapy is usually unsatisfactory. Endoscopic thoracic sympathectomy (ETS) is considered an effective treatment for palmar hyperhidrosis. However, many different procedures have been used: simple resection of the sympathetic ganglion, transect...

Abstract We present the first systematic inventory of surge-type glaciers for whole Greenland compiled from published datasets and multitemporal satellite images digital elevation models. The allows us to define spatial climatic distribution analyse timing surges 1985 2019. identified 274 glaciers, an increase 37% compared previous work. Mapping glacier by temperature precipitation variables de...

BACKGROUND Phosphorus magnetic resonance spectroscopy (31P MRS) allows for the measurement of phospholipids and their breakdown products in the human brain. Fairly mobile membrane phospholipids give rise to a broad signal that co-resonates with metabolic phosphodiesters. Chronic alcohol exposure increases the rigidity of isolated brain membranes and, thus, may affect the amount and transverse r...
