We propose an approximation to the mean of the ratio of cumulative sums of a sequence of independently distributed nonnegative random variables. Both leading term and higher-order saddlepoint approximations are presented, and the results are applied to a vector ratio approximation, change-point analysis, and kernel regression.

Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) has been used to estimate the non-frequency dependent (static) dielectric constants of base polymers such as poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC), cellulose triacetate (CTA) and polystyrene (PS). Polymer inclusion membranes (PIMs) containing different amounts of PVC or CTA, along with the room temperature ionic liquid Aliquat 336 and plasticizers such as trisb...

Dispersion, dissipation, and efficacy of gas and gel formulations of methyl bromidechloropicrin (202, 269, 336, and 403 kg/ha) on nematodes and weeds on tomato were studied in field plots. Concentrations of methyl bromide and chloropicrin 4 hr after soil treatment were greater at a depth of 15 cm than at 30, 45, or 60 cm. The concentrations of both chemicals decreased with lower doses, greater ...

The three slow-growing variant sublines of Yoshida sarcoma, LY-7, LY-5, and LY-336, as compared with the parent tumor, showed a marked increase in activity to synthesize glycogen from added glucose in vitro. The activity increases roughly parallel with the increasing survival time of the tumors. The glyconeogenetic activity of Yoshida sarcoma, as determined by the incorporation of pyruvate-carb...

We determine the disk mass distribution around 336 stars in the young (∼ 1 Myr) Orion Nebula cluster by imaging a 2. 5 × 2. 5 region in λ3 mm continuum emission with the Owens Valley Millimeter Array. For this sample of 336 stars, we observe 3 mm emission above the 3σ noise level toward ten sources, six of which have also been detected optically in silhouette against the bright nebular backgrou...
