Statistical analysis of logarithmic asset returns

In the study, we conducted a statistical analysis of asset returns of 16 companies during the period from 2000 to 2015. We used the Shapiro-Wilk test and determined that time series are not from a normal distribution. We detect structural breaks in time series with the Chow test, and then the correlation coefficients between asset returns were calculated. We found the first four moments of correlation coefficients. Data collection and statistical computing have been done in the programming language R

Resonance production in p+p, p+A and A+A collisions measured with HADES

The knowledge of baryonic resonance properties and production cross sections plays an important role for the extraction and understanding of medium modifications of mesons in hot and/or dense nuclear matter. We present and discuss systematics on dielectron and strangeness production obtained with HADES on p+p, p+A and A+A collisions in the few GeV energy regime with respect to these resonances

New data on the differential cross section of the dp-elastic scattering at 2.5 GeV obtained with HADES detector

New results on the differential cross section in deuteron-proton elastic scattering are obtained at the deuteron kinetic energy of 2.5 GeV with the HADES spectrometer. The angular range of 69°-125° in the center of mass system is covered. The obtained results are compared with the relativistic multiple scattering model calculation using the CD-Bonn deuteron wave function. The data at fixed scattering angles in the c.m. are in qualitative agreement with the constituent counting rules prediction

FLOOD WARNING LEVEL FORECASTING FOR UNGAUGED CATCHMENTS BY MEANS OF A COMBINED API-STORAGE CONCEPT

Abstract The knowledge of the expected dimension of the flood peak is of major importance for security and warning services to take preventive measures
