It is known that some observed gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are produced at cosmological distances and that the GRB production rate may follow the star formation rate. We model the BATSE-detected intensity distribution of long GRBs in order to…

Many models of cosmological gamma-ray bursts involve the sudden release of $\sim 10^{51}$ erg which produce shells which expand at relativistic speeds (Lorentz $\Gamma$ factors of $10^{2-3}$). We investigate the kinematic limits on the…

A key process in the life of any multicellular organism is its development from a single egg into a full grown adult. The first step in this process often consists of forming a tissue layer out of randomly placed cells on the surface of the…

We investigate the second moment of a random sampling $\zeta(1/2+iX_t)$ of the Riemann zeta function on the critical line. Our main result states that if $X_t$ is an increasing random sampling with gamma distribution, then for all…
