This note extends some results of Nishiyama [Ann. Probab. 28 (2000) 685–712]. A maximal inequality for stochastic integrals with respect to integer-valued random measures which may have infinitely many jumps on compact time intervals is given. By using it, a tightness criterion is obtained; if the so-called quadratic modulus is bounded in probability and if a certain entropy condition on the pa...

2014 The ODIC phase of adamantane (208 K-541 K) was studied by Raman light scattering between 209 K and 500 K. The 1 220 cm-1, E symmetry, vibrational line was recorded with Eg and F2g symmetries. The Eg spectra, due to ordered molecules, are broadened by a residence time effect. The F2g spectra, which correspond to molecules as they rotate, could be attributed to the modification of the intern...

 Abstract— The SMAP microwave radiometer is a fully-polarimetric L-band radiometer flown on the SMAP satellite in a 6 AM/ 6 PM sun-synchronous orbit at 685 km altitude. Since April, 2015, the radiometer is under calibration and validation to assess the quality of the radiometer L1B data product. Calibration methods including the SMAP L1B TA2TB (from Antenna Temperature (TA) to the Earth’s surf...

We simulate 50 off-lattice DLA clusters, one million particles each. The probability distribution of the angle of attachment of arriving particles with respect to the local radial direction is obtained numerically. For increasing cluster size, N , the distribution crosses over extremely accurately to a cosine, whose amplitude decreases towards zero as a power-law in N . From this viewpoint, asy...

We present the first English translation of Einstein’s original papers related to the teleparallel1 attempt of an unified field theory of gravitation and electromagnetism. Our collection contains the summarizing paper in Math. Annal. 102 (1930) pp. 685-697 and 2 reports published in ’Sitzungsberichte der Preussischen Akademie der Wissenschaften’ on June 7th, 1928 (pp. 217-221), June 14th, 1928 ...
