Testing Cross-Section Correlation in Panel Data Using Spacings

This article provides tools for characterizing the extent of cross-section correlation in panel data when we do not know a priori how many and which series are correlated. Our tests are based on the probability integral transformation of the ordered correlations. We first split the transformed correlations by their size into two groups, then evaluate the variance ratio of the two subsamples. Th...

Hybrid Phantom Applications to Nuclear Medicine

Annually, many people are irradiated for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. Assessment of radiation dose and its related risks to patients are important issues in radiation protection dosimetry. The complex mathematical calculations of the absorbed and effective doses are now done with computers. The calculations are performed with the help of anthropomorphic computational models of human bod...

MobiTest: A Cross-Platform Tool for Testing Mobile Applications

Testing is an essential part of the software development lifecycle. However, it can cost a lot of time and money to perform. For mobile applications, this problem is further exacerbated by the need to develop apps in a short time-span and for multiple platforms. This paper proposes MobiTest, a cross-platform automated testing tool for mobile applications, which uses a domain-specific language f...

Cross Section for “Ultracold” Neutrons

Very cold neutrons (typical wavelengths are about 102 Ä) are available by recently developed techniques 2. The features of the scattering of these “ultracold” neutrons are investigated in the present paper discussing a few examples of magnetic scattering. The diffraction of neutrons by the vortex lattice in superconductors is treated as an example of elastic scattering, while in most other case...
