The fundamental equation of asset pricing states that the expected timeand risk-adjusted cumulative return on any asset equals one at all horizons. This paper shows that for a typical asset, the realized timeand risk-adjusted cumulative return tends to zero with probability one. Just two assumptions are required: limited liability and no arbitrage. This apparent paradox is resolved by a further...

Using the code autostructure, extensive calculations of inner-shell atomic data have been made for the chemical elements He, C, N, O, Ne, Na, Mg, Al, Si, S, Ar, Ca, Cr, Mn, Fe and Ni. The results are used to obtain up-dated opacities from the Opacity Project, OP. A number of other improvements on earlier work have also been included. Rosseland-mean opacities from OP are compared with those from...

in recent years, synthetic aperture radar (sar) images have played an important role in the detection and monitoring of ground targets because of their advantages such as independence from climatic conditions and sensitivity to the target geometry. the complexity of sar imaging sensors, especially in the conversion process from raw data to image, has made it difficult to interpret the behavior ...
