The distribution function of energetic particles and the time evolution of the frequency spectrum of fluctuations. Initially, the energetic particle distribution function is mountain-like. It slopes ...

This paper discusses a value-at-risk (VaR) time-scaling approach based on fitting a distribution function so as to apply a Monte Carlo simulation to determine long-term VaR. The paper uses composite ...

Some particle size instruments, known as single particle counters, measure individual particle size, while others measure surface area as a function of particle size. Further instruments measure mass ...

Some general results concerning the asymptotic behavior of the value of the empirical distribution function at a random point (e.g. the sample mean) are given. These results are then used to obtain: ...
