Abstract NASA’s EPOXI mission used the Deep Impact spacecraft to observe disk-integrated Earth as an analog terrestial exoplanets’ appearance. The took five 24 hr observations in 2008–2009 at various phase angles (57.°7–86.°4) and ranges (0.11–0.34 au), of which three equatorial (E1, E4, E5) two polar (P1, North P2, South). visible data taken by HRIV instrument from 0.3 1.0 μ m, trough seven sp...

Gravitational waves (GWs) from strong first-order phase transitions (SFOPTs) in the early Universe are a prime target for upcoming GW experiments. In this paper, I construct novel peak-integrated sensitivity curves (PISCs) these experiments, which faithfully represent their projected sensitivities to signal cosmological SFOPT by explicitly taking into account expected shape of signal. Designed ...

By considering families of periodic pseudo-orbits on the cylindrical phase space of an area-preserving twist map, we construct curves of rational rotation number that are critical points of a non-negative error norm (the mean-square action gradient or "quadratic flux"). Two alternative angle-parametrizations of the curves are presented and numerical evidence is given that the curves possess the...

The main purpose of this investigation is to study the effect of near miscible CO2 injection in different porous mediums on both lab and field scales. This effect can be traced by the change of two-phase gas-oil relative permeability curves. In this work, the experiments have been performed on three rock types (i.e. sandstone, dolomite, and artificial fractured sandstone) based on an incrementa...

We examine the issue of evaluation of model specific parameters in a modified VC-formalism. Two examples are analyzed: the 2-dimensional homogeneous perceptron and the I-dimensional higher order neuron. Both models are solved theoretically, and their learning curves are compared against true learning curves. It is shown that the formalism has the potential to generate a variety of learning curv...
