Universality or near-universality of citation distributions was found empirically a decade ago but its theoretical justification has been lacking so far. Here, we systematically study citation distributions for different disciplines in…

The response of a vibrating beam to a force depends on many physical parameters including those determined by material properties. Damage caused by fatigue or cracks result in local reductions in stiffness parameters and may drastically…

Here I discuss the major pitfalls and the most severe mistakes of the above mentioned paper. The thorough analysis shows that despite all the claims the present work has nothing to do with the thermalization process in relativistic heavy…

The ballistic coefficient of a bullet describes how it slows in flight due to air resistance. This article presents experimental determinations of ballistic coefficients showing that the majority of bullets tested have their previously…

Wound healing is a complex process with many components and interrelated processes on a microscopic level. This paper addresses a macroscopic view on wound healing based on an energy conservation argument coupled with a general scaling of…

We point out numerous inconsistencies and inappropriate statements in M. Miyazaki and H. Hayano, Journal of Radiological Protection 37, 1 (2016).

The prediction and prevention of traumatic brain injury, spinal injury and general musculo-skeletal injury is a very important aspect of preventive medical science. Recently, in a series of papers, I have proposed a new coupled loading-rate…

We derive the weak value deflection given in a paper by Dixon et al. (Phys. Rev. Lett. 102, 173601 (2009)) both quantum mechanically and classically. This paper is meant to cover some of the mathematical details omitted in that paper owing…

Reply to comment by Jain, Cond-mat 9409012 published in the Physical Review Letters, Number 73, 1052 (1994).

This paper has been withdrawn by the author. The author found that the main results here were already obtained by K. Taniyama and A. Yasuhara `On $C$-distance of knots. Kobe J. Math. 11 (1994), no. 1, 117--127. MR1309997 (95j:57010)'. He…

The article is a lightly edited version of my habilitation thesis at the University Wuerzburg. My aim is to give a self contained, if concise, introduction to the formal methods used when off-line learning in feedforward networks is…

This is the Reply to the Comment by E. Thuneberg refuting the paper by E. B.Sonin [Phys. Rev. B 104, 094517 (2021)] as incorrect. The criticism is based on a misunderstanding of the goal and the approach of the paper and does not provide…

Existing theories of gun violence predict stable spatial concentrations and contagious diffusion of gun violence into surrounding areas. Recent empirical studies have reported confirmatory evidence of such spatiotemporal diffusion of gun…

Since the National Academy of Sciences released their report outlining paths for improving reliability, standards, and policies in the forensic sciences NAS (2009), there has been heightened interest in evaluating and improving the…

With regard to the recently published article, ``Y.-Q. Wang, et al., Physical mechanism of equiprobable exclusion network with heterogeneous interactions in phase transitions: Analytical analyses of steady state evolving from initial state,…

Many scholars have called for raising statistical hurdles to guard against false discoveries in academic publications. I show these calls may be difficult to justify empirically. Published data exhibit bias: results that fail to meet…

Due to a significant error in the main result (pointed out by J. Wahl), the paper has been withdrawn by the authors. A corrected and expanded version is 'Rational blow-downs and smoothings of surface singularities' by A. Stipsicz, Z. Szabo…

Trauma mortality results from a multitude of non-linear dependent risk factors including patient demographics, injury characteristics, medical care provided, and characteristics of medical facilities; yet traditional approach attempted to…
