In this paper, we suggest how to handle the issue of heteroskedasticity measurement errors when specifying dynamic models for conditional expectation realized variance. We show that either adding a GARCH correction within an asymmetric extension HAR class ( AHAR - ), or working multiplicative error AMEM ) greatly reduces need quarticity/quadratic terms capture attenuation bias. This feature in ...

We show that the nondemolition measurement of a spacelike Wilson loop operator W (C) is impossible in a relativistic non-Abelian gauge theory. In particular, if two spacelikeseparated magnetic flux tubes both link with the loop C, then a nondemolition measurement of W (C) would cause electric charge to be transferred from one flux tube to the other, a violation of relativistic causality. A dest...

The RI/MOM non-perturbative renormalization scheme is studied on the lattice in SU(3) quenched QCD with Wilson fermions. The gauge dependence of some fermion bilinear renormalization constants is discussed by comparing data which have been gauge-fixed in two different realizations of the Landau gauge and in a generic covariant gauge. The very good agreement between the various sets of results a...

A number of Earth remote sensing satellites are currently carrying passive microwave radiometers. A variety of different retrieval algorithms are used to estimate surface rain rates over the ocean from the microwave radiances observed by the radiometers. This study compares several different satellite algorithms with each other and with independent data from rain gauges on ocean buoys. The rain...
