In this article we examine the impact of daily trade turnover on the day-of-the-week effect in emerging stock markets. The empirical analysis was made by using Vilnius Stock OMX equities return data. The main method suggested for analysis was based on formation of three portfolios with equities having low, medium and high daily turnover. By applying traditional statistical research methods, suc...

Xiangdong Shi and George M. Fuller Department of Physics, University of California, San Diego, La Jolla, California 92093-0319 (December 16, 1998) We propose a new and unique dark matter candidate: ∼ 100 eV to ∼ 10 keV sterile neutrinos produced via lepton number-driven resonant MSW (Mikheyev-Smirnov-Wolfenstein) conversion of active neutrinos. The requisite lepton number asymmetries in any of ...

We present a systematic study of the dynamical scaling process leading to the establishment of the Kolmogorov–Zakharov (KZ) spectrum in weak 3-wave turbulence. In the finite capacity case, in which the transient spectrum reaches infinite frequency in finite time, the dynamical scaling exponent is anomalous in the sense that it cannot be determined from dimensional considerations. As a consequen...

We consider the Earth effect in the MSW analysis of the Homestake, Kamiokande, GALLEX, and SAGE solar neutrino experiments. Using the time-averaged data and assuming two-flavor oscillations, the large-angle region of the combined fit extends to much smaller angles (to sin 2θ ≃ 0.1) than when the Earth effect is ignored. However, the additional constraint from the Kamiokande II day-night data ex...

The OGLE data for Einstein ring crossing times, tE, for microlensing events toward the galactic bulge are analyzed. The analysis shows that the crossing times are bimodal, indicating that two populations of lenses could be responsible for observed microlensing events. Given the possibility that microlensing in this direction can be due to both main-sequence stars and white dwarfs, we analyze an...

BACKGROUND The model-based dynamic insulin sensitivity and secretion test (DISST) uses fasting glucose (G 0 ) as the basal glucose (G B ) concentration when assessing insulin sensitivity (SI). However, this model was developed in a healthy, normoglycaemic cohort. We sought to determine the suitability the DISST model has for individuals with established type 2 diabetes (T2D). METHODS 14 parti...

Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) has a pivotal role as a remote imaging method. Obtained by means of coherent illumination, SAR images are contaminated with speckle noise. The statistical modelling of such contamination is well described according the multiplicative model and its implied G distribution. The understanding of SAR imagery and scene element identification is an important objective in...
