Phylogenies and the Comparative Method
Comparative studies of the relationship between two phenotypes, or between a phenotype and an environment, are frequently carried out by invalid statistical methods. Most regres...
Free Energy of a Nonuniform System. I. Interfacial Free Energy
It is shown that the free energy of a volume V of an isotropic system of nonuniform composition or density is given by : NV∫V [f0(c)+κ(▿c)2]dV, where NV is the number of molecul...
Investment Under Uncertainty.
How should firms decide whether and when to invest in new capital equipment, additions to their workforce, or the development of new products? Why have traditional economic mode...
A Set of Measures of Centrality Based on Betweenness
A family of new measures of point and graph centrality based on early intuitions of Bavelas (1948) is introduced. These measures define centrality in terms of the degree to whic...
Orbital angular momentum of light and the transformation of Laguerre-Gaussian laser modes
Laser light with a Laguerre-Gaussian amplitude distribution is found to have a well-defined orbital angular momentum. An astigmatic optical system may be used to transform a hig...

The River Continuum Concept
From headwaters to mouth, the physical variables within a river system present a continuous gradient of physical conditions. This gradient should elicit a series of responses wi...
Adolescence-limited and life-course-persistent antisocial behavior: A developmental taxonomy.
A dual taxonomy is presented to reconcile 2 incongruous facts about antisocial behavior: (a) It shows impressive continuity over age, but (b) its prevalence changes dramatically...
The Sloan Digital Sky Survey: Technical Summary
The Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) will provide the data to support detailed investigations of the distribution of luminous and nonluminous matter in the universe: a photometri...
