Most data processing techniques, applied to biomedical and sociological time series, are only valid for random fluctuations that are stationary in time. Unfortunately, these data are often non stationary and the use of techniques of…
It was recently reported that there exists a population of "glitch candidates" and "anti-glitch candidates" which are effectively small spin-ups and spin-downs of a neutron star with magnitudes smaller than those seen in typical glitches.…

We propose a novel method for detecting gravitational waves (GW), where a light signal emitted from a distant star interacts with a local (also distant) GW source and travels towards the Earth, where it is detected. While traveling in the…
