Distance-based regression in prediction of solar flare activity.

Anna Bartkowiak, Maria Jakimiec (1994)

Qüestiió

Short-term prediction of solar flare activity using multiple regression methods was considered. The variables describing active regions the given day were used to predict the flare activity on the next day. Two groups of observational data covering the years 1988 and 1989 were dealt with. Some variants of the distance-based regression as proposed by Cuadras and Arenas (1990) appeared to be superior to the ordinary least squares method by describing more accurately the data sets under consideration....

Multicomponent models in nuclear astrophysics

Bernard Ducomet (2008)

Banach Center Publications

We consider hydrodynamical models describing the evolution of a gaseous star in which the presence of thermonuclear reactions between several species leads to a multicomponent formulation. In the case of binary mixtures, recent 3D results are evoked. In the one-dimensional situation, we can prove global estimates and stabilization for some simplified model.

Special Functions and Pathways for Problems in Astrophysics: An Essay in Honor of A.M. Mathai

Haubold, Hans, Kumar, Dilip, Nair, Seema, Joseph, Dhannya (2010)

Fractional Calculus and Applied Analysis

The paper provides a review of A.M. Mathai's applications of the theory of special functions, particularly generalized hypergeometric functions, to problems in stellar physics and formation of structure in the Universe and to questions related to reaction, diffusion, and reaction-diffusion models. The essay also highlights Mathai's recent work on entropic, distributional, and differential pathways to basic concepts in statistical mechanics, making use of his earlier research results in information...

Stellar pulsations and gravitational waves

Kostas Kokkotas (1997)

Banach Center Publications

Pulsating stars are important sources of information for astrophysics. Nearly every star undergoes some kind of pulsation from the early stages of its formation until the very late ones i.e. the catastrophic creation of a supercompact object (white dwarf, neutron star or black hole). Pulsations of supercompact objects are of great importance for relativistic astrophysics since these pulsations are accompanied by the emission of gravitational radiation. In this review we shall discuss various features...
