The probability density functionP(N/N0,t) as a function of timet and the relative number of particlesN/N0. Note that this is a logarithm color plot, so0 on the color bar corresponds to1, and−1

- to10−1. White line, the the exponential decay,exp(−ct), is plotted in the one-standard deviation envelope (dashed yellow lines).

The probability density functionP(N/N0,t) as a function of timet and the relative number of particlesN/N0. Note that this is a logarithm color plot, so0 on the color bar corresponds to1, and−1

- to10−1. White line, the the exponential decay,exp(−ct), is plotted in the one-standard deviation envelope (dashed yellow lines).

= 100: propagation

This plot is obtained by propagation the initial state P(N,0) =δ(N−N0) with the matrix exponential B= exp(M ∗ 4t) (see the script above).4t= 0.02.

In fluorescence decay, an electron from a valence orbital drops down into the core hole and the excess energy is emitted in the form of an X-ray (photon). Auger decay, on the

An angle is a relation between two one-dimensional directions, so we define the magnitude of the angle between two unit vectors and as the length of the arc on the unit circle

In the work by Schmidt et al [5], [10] the defect generation rate R gen, for both the rapid and the slow decay, has been determined by fitting a single exponential function to the

In the analyses we compare data from a new chronology of plots and attacks by jihadis in Europe in 2014-16 (Appendix 1)[5], with findings from three previous studies by FFI’s

Breytenbach writes of a world in which some societies have time but not history, in which they are excluded from the historical consciousness of the rest of the
