    Notes: In many scattering experiments, the quantity of most direct physical interest is a measure of the difference between two closely related scattering signals, each generated by a Poisson scattering process. This difference is often expressed in terms of an asymmetry statistic, that is, the difference normalized to the sum of the two signals, corrected for an additive background contribution. Typically, a propagation of errors approach is used to compute confidence intervals for asymmetry. However, these confidence intervals are not reliable in general. In this work, generally accurate confidence intervals for asymmetry are obtained using a parametric bootstrap approach. Based on the observed data, data are simulated using a Monte Carlo resampling scheme. The resampled data sets satisfy a constraint that ensures that background-corrected count rates are not negative.

    Notes: An asymmetry statistic of physical interest is an estimate of the ratio of the difference and the sum of the Poisson rate parameters for two scattering processes. Typically, an additive background signal contributes to measurements of each signal. Background is measured in a third experiment. Data are corrected by subtracting measured background. When the measured background is larger than one of the other measurements, background-corrected counts are negative. For this case, it would seem that no useful information can be extracted from the experiment. Here, asymmetry and an associated uncertainty interval are estimated for such cases using a bootstrap approach.

    Notes: [Auszug] The theory of quantum electrodynamics (QED) predicts that beta decay of the neutron into a proton, electron and antineutrino should be accompanied by a continuous spectrum of soft photons. While this inner bremsstrahlung branch has been previously measured in nuclear beta and electron capture ...

    Notes: Abstract Steady-state laminar flow through single rock fractures is predicted in terms of spatial statistics computed from the arrangement of voids and contact areas within the fracture. Within the voids, aperture is assumed to be constant. One statistic measures how often pixels alternate from void to contact area in the rows parallel to the flow direction. Two others measure the dispersion of voids in the rows and columns of the pattern. Fractures with complexity typical of observed data are simulated. Flow through patterns with 80% voids is predicted in terms of a linear combination of the three statistics. Using an extended model involving one of the three statistics, flow through patterns with other void fractions is predicted.
