High seismic activity forces Indonesia to mitigate natural disasters minimize the impact of these disasters. One mitigation efforts that can be done is know possibility an earthquake occurring in area. Earthquakes, which are random phenomena, cannot determined with certainty. Therefore, studies seismological statistics used. discusses occurrence earthquakes epidemic-type aftershock sequence (ET...

GaAs-based, highly-efficient, kW-class, 1-cm laser bars with high peak power P opt and improved beam quality in quasi-continuous-wave mode are presented. The use of an extreme-triple-asymmetric (ETAS) epitaxial layer structure diminishes sat...

INTRODUCTION Our knowledge of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) pathogenesis is incomplete. The goal of this pilot study is to investigate the feasibility of measuring lower airways inflammation in patients with ARDS using repeated endotracheal aspirates (ETAs). METHODS ETAs were obtained within 24 hours by intensive care unit admission from 25 mechanically ventilated patients with A...

Using the simple ETAS branching model of seismicity, which assumes that each earthquake can trigger other earthquakes, we quantify the role played by the cascade of triggered seismicity in controlling the rate of aftershock decay as well as the overall level of seismicity in the presence of a constant external seismicity source. We show that, in this model, the fraction of earthquakes in the po...

Suppose a forecasting scheme associates a probability p with some observed outcome. The entropy score given to this forecast is then log p . This article provides a review of the background to this scoring method, its main properties, and its relationships to concepts such as likelihood, probability gain, and Molchan’s m-s diagram. It is shown that, in terms of this score, an intrinsic characte...
