In this paper we investigate the relationship between price dispersion and inflation; we use weekly retail scanner data from 2009 to 2011 to measure price dispersion and inflation for several dairy products. We implement a linear model to investigate the linkage between price dispersion and consumer price indexes. As in the previous literature, we obtain mixed results with respect to the relati...

Diffusion MRI is an exquisitely sensitive probe of tissue microstructure, and is currently the only non-invasive measure of the brain's fibre architecture. As this technique becomes more sophisticated and microstructurally informative, there is increasing value in comparing diffusion MRI with microscopic imaging in the same tissue samples. This study compared estimates of fibre orientation disp...

We study the interference pattern of biphotons passing through a dispersive medium, and devise a method for measuring dispersion in coincidence counting of entangled photons. By measuring the Gouy phase shift accompanying dispersion, we show that it fundamentally differs from the Gouy phase expected from classical models. Finally, we show that the second-order correlation function of the disper...

The current study assesses critical condition of oil dispassion, considering the unsaturated soil condition dispersity behavior for oil dispersion. The numerical model is used as a finite element method to model the oil spill pollution with two different saturated and unsaturated soil conditions chosen and their pollution dispersion results compared. Extracted results from numerical model show ...

This report presents the results of studies on emissions dispersion from an aircraft engine during the take-off phase. Two types of wind configuration were applied to a single and a double jet engine. Results highlight the influence of different parameters on the plume dispersion pattern, and confirm that CFD is an appropriate tool for source dynamics simulations. ALAQS Comparison of CFD and La...
