... We demonstrate through numerical simulations that model parameters estimated with our technique are essentially bias-free, even when the average number of counts per bin is 1. ... The IW technique avoids such biases by estimating through successive iterations, where for each iteration, j, , and the best-fit parameters are determined by minimization of . ... In our sample, we find that the minimum values and best-fit parameters converge after about 6 iterations. ...

... Under certain conditions, like those in the nucleus of a QSO, all atoms can be made to emit light at particular wavelengths. ... If that source is approaching the observer, the wave is squashed up onto itself making the wavelength shorter. ... This is redshift. ... You can see how the section of the QSO spectrum which we observe changes with redshift. ... We then see how far we had to slide the observed spectrum along the scale to make it match and that is the objects redshift. ... The 2QZ team . ...

... We have observed and studied critical supercurrents, Ic, in cross-type Nb-Cu/Ni-Nb junctions with Josephson layers prepared from diluted ferromagnetic alloys. For suitable values of the exchange energy in the ferromagnet and the F-layer thickness we have observed Ic(T) oscillation with vanishing Ic for the definite values of T and dF. ...
