This paper describes a procedure based on the Monte Carlo method to obtain the statistical distributions of lightning current parameters at ground level starting from those inferred from experimental data recorded by means of tall instrumented towers. As a ...
Floating Car Data (FCD) is becoming a more and more popular technique for travel time measurements in road networks. Nevertheless, FCD is a sampling technique which requires controlling the statistical properties of link travel times to obtain accurate est ...
We study the statistical properties of the potential energy landscape of a system of particles interacting via a very short-range square-well potential (of depth - u0) as a function of the range of attraction Δ to provide thermodynamic insights of the Noro ...

The formation mechanisms, structure and optoelectronic properties of Ga(In)As/(Al)GaAs quantum dot (QD) heterostructures grown by organometallic chemical vapor deposition on patterned (111)B GaAs substrates are reviewed. With this approach, it is possible ...
The one-dimensional fragmentation of a dynamically expanding ring (Mott's problem) is studied numerically to obtain the fragment signatures under different strain rates. An empirical formula is proposed to calculate an average fragment size. Rayleigh distr ...
We discuss a detailed near-field spectroscopic study of the nanoscopic optical properties of a novel coupled wire-dot nanostructure grown on (31 1)A GaAs substrates. Photoluminescence spectra recorded with 150 mn spatial and 100 mueV spectral resolution pe ...
We present an experimental and theoretical study of the size dependence of the coupling between electron-hole pairs and longitudinal-optical phonons in Ga1-xInxN/GaN-based quantum wells and quantum boxes. We found that the Huang-Rhys factor S, which determ ...
Exciton reflectivity from GaN/AlxGa1-xN quantum wells (QWs) shows broad peaks that are difficult to analyze within a conventional single-free-exciton model. We have applied a new formalism that allows us to separate numerically radiative and inhomogeneous ...
A dramatic suppression of the absorption of light by exciton polaritons is observed after resonant excitation of the polaritonic modes in a multiple quantum well Bragg structure. Time-resolved reflectivity measurements confirm that this is due to the forma ...
