Quantum Bayesian implementation
Bayesian implementation concerns decision making problems when agents have
incomplete information. This paper proposes that the traditional sufficient
conditions for Bayesian implementation shall be amended by virtue of a quantum
Bayesian mechanism. In addition, by using an algorithmic Bayesian mechanism,
this amendment holds in the macro world.Comment: 14 pages, 3 figure

Measurements of elastic and quasi-elastic scatterings of pp and -pp from ~ 20 to 40 GeV/c
We propose a systematic study of elastic and quasi-elastic scatterings of pp and {bar p}p in the forward region (|t{vert_bar} {approx}< 1.5 GeV{sup 2}) from {approx} 20 to 40 GeV/c by using the single-arm spectrometer of NAL Exp. 7 without any essential change. The physics interests in this energy region warrant a precise comparison between pp and {bar p}p as a function of s(t) for fixed t(s). Therefore it is essential to use the same experimental apparatus and analysis procedures in order to minimize possible systematic errors. The possible future experiments at Serpukhov will not be able to produce sufficient flux in the secondary {bar p} beams to answer the physics questions raised in this proposal

Very high energy proton proton interactions: exploratory survey in a bubble chamber
We propose a bubble chamber study of the general features of proton-proton interactions in the 200 to 500 GeV energy range in as much detail as measuring accuracy permits, starting with charged particle multiplicities, transverse and longitudinal momentum distributions, and detailed measurement of particle systems originating from the target proton, and extending to an exploration of the possibility of doing some four-constraint or equivalent kinematic analysis of complete events. A scanning search for any new or exotic phenomena is an important part of this proposal. We request 100,000 pictures initially in a 2 meter or 14 foot hydrogen bubble chamber, with 200 GeV or greater proton beam, {delta}p/p{le} .1%, {delta}{theta} {le} 2 mrad, and both tolerances better, if possible

Neutrino interactions in the deuterium-neon 14 foot double bubble chamber
We propose to study the interactions of high energy neutrinos in the 14 foot bubble chamber. The target chamber to be filled with Deuterium and the surrounding region filled with nearly pure Neon. An exposure of one million pictures is requested, in order to map out the s and t dependences of the basic interaction in which neutrinos participate

Quantal Response Equilibrium and Overbidding in Auctions
This paper applies the quantal response equilibrium (QRE) model to study overbidding in private-values auctions. Experimental evidence shows that the prevalence of overbidding depends on the cost of overbidding relative to underbidding, as predicted theoretically. We use QRE as an error structure to estimate parameters of several competing models of overbidding. A QRE model based on risk averse bidders closely tracks the exact distribution of bids. The estimated parameters are significant and consistent across treatments
Risk Averse Behavior in Generalizing Matching Pennies Games
In experimental studies of behavior in 2×2 games with unique mixed strategy equilibria, observed choice frequencies are systematically different from mixed-strategy Nash predictions. This paper examines experimental results for a variety of such games, and shows that a structural econometric model which incorporates risk aversion into a quantal response equilibrium explains the data very well. Moreover, risk aversion estimates are stable across the different games and are close to those obtained from laboratory and field auction data, as well as from individual lottery choice experiments
