... Let be a random deviate which follows a Poissonian probability distribution about the expectation value . Although the Poisson distribution itself is only defined for integer , one can find the following continuous `envelope function' to the Poisson values: . ... where is the gamma function . ... The expectation value of is . ... Equation 5 is used both in the present program and in boxdetect to estimate the null-hypothesis probability distribution of the weighted sum of Poissonian images. ...

Appendix B: The Effects of Thermal Changes on the "Absolute" Position of the Secondary . ... I will use the same nomenclature for the rod forces here as I used in Appendix A. In Appendix A, the axial force balance equation at the horizon was shown to be . ... The quantity that we really wish to derive is , where is the rod elongation at some initial epoch (i.e. when the rods were first tensioned) and where is the rod elongation at some later time after the rod temperatures had changed. ...
... I see the same problem all the time in undergraduate assignments: someone comes up with an answer that is clearly, wildly, hopelessly wrong (e.g. the mass of some star is 0.7 kg, or an asteroid is travelling at 1010 m s-1 (faster than light), or the Earth took 1011 years to form (much longer than the age of the universe). ... This means that every valid equation should work equally well, regardless of the units you use (as long as they are self consistent). ... Do you think this could be correct? ...
... После длительного полета аппарат встретиться с кометой Wirtanen и выйдет на орбиту вокруг нее. На поверхность кометы опуститься посадочный модуль, который проведет научные исследования.
