    Spin-polarized ballistic transport in diluted magnetic semiconductor quantum wire systems

    No full text
    The energy dispersion of an electron in a double quantum wire with a diluted magnetic semiconductor barrier in between is calculated. An external magnetic field modifies significantly the energy dispersion of the electron which is different for the two spin states. The conductance exhibits many interesting peaks and dips which are directly related to the energy dispersions of the different electron spin states. These phenomena are attributed to the interwell coupling which can be tuned by the magnetic field due to the s-d exchange interaction

    Measuring overlap in logistic regression

    No full text
    In this paper we show that the recent notion of regression depth can be used as a data-analytic tool to measure the amount of separation between successes and failures in the binary response framework. Extending this algorithm allows us to compute the overlap in data sets which are commonly fitted by logistic regression models. The overlap is the number of observations that would need to be removed to obtain complete or quasicomplete separation, i.e. the situation where the logistic regression parameters are no longer identifiable and the maximum likelihood estimate does not exist. It turns out that the overlap is often quite small.

    A general search for new phenomena in ep scattering at HERA

    No full text
    A model-independent search for deviations from the standard model prediction is performed in e"+p and e"-p collisions at HERA using H1 data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 117 pb"-"1. For the first time all event topologies involving isolated electrons, photons, muons, neutrinos and jets with high transverse momenta are investigated in a single analysis. Events are assigned to exclusive classes according to their final state. A statistical algorithm is developed to search for deviations from the standard model in the distributions of the scalar sum of transverse momenta or invariant mass of final state particles and to quantify their significance. A good agreement with the standard model prediction is observed in most of the event classes. The most significant deviation is found for a topology containing an isolated muon, missing transverse momentum and a jet, consistent with a previously reported observation.
