Goldstone solar system radar signal processing
A performance analysis of the planetary radar data acquisition system is presented. These results extend previous computer simulation analysis and are facilitated by the development of a simple analytical model that predicts radar system performance over a wide range of operational parameters. The results of this study are useful to both the radar system designer and the science investigator in establishing operational radar data acquisition parameters which result in the best systems performance for a given set of input conditions
Optimal domain of -concave operators and vector measure representation of -concave Banach lattices
Given a Banach space valued -concave linear operator defined on a
-order continuous quasi-Banach function space, we provide a description
of the optimal domain of preserving -concavity, that is, the largest
-order continuous quasi-Banach function space to which can be
extended as a -concave operator. We show in this way the existence of
maximal extensions for -concave operators. As an application, we show a
representation theorem for -concave Banach lattices through spaces of
integrable functions with respect to a vector measure. This result culminates a
series of representation theorems for Banach lattices using vector measures
that have been obtained in the last twenty years
On the distribution of the total energy of a system on non-interacting fermions: random matrix and semiclassical estimates
We consider a single particle spectrum as given by the eigenvalues of the
Wigner-Dyson ensembles of random matrices, and fill consecutive single particle
levels with n fermions. Assuming that the fermions are non-interacting, we show
that the distribution of the total energy is Gaussian and its variance grows as
n^2 log n in the large-n limit. Next to leading order corrections are computed.
Some related quantities are discussed, in particular the nearest neighbor
spacing autocorrelation function. Canonical and gran canonical approaches are
considered and compared in detail. A semiclassical formula describing, as a
function of n, a non-universal behavior of the variance of the total energy
starting at a critical number of particles is also obtained. It is illustrated
with the particular case of single particle energies given by the imaginary
part of the zeros of the Riemann zeta function on the critical line.Comment: 28 pages in Latex format, 5 figures, submitted for publication to
