We present a method for the nonparametric (model-free) estimation of an intensity map underlying two-dimensional count data with Poisson noise characteristics. Specifically, we extend the so-called TIPSH (translation invariant Poisson smoothing using

We present quantitative statistical evidence for a $\gamma$-ray emission halo surrounding the Galaxy. Maps of the emission are derived. EGRET data were analyzed in a wavelet-based non-parametric hypothesis testing framework, using a model of expected

The Oriented Scintillation Spectrometer Experiment (OSSE) observations of the Galactic plane and Galactic center region have been combined with scanning observations by the Transient Gamma-Ray Spectrometer (TGRS) and Solar Maximum Mission (SMM) instr

We present progress toward using scanned OSSE observations for mapping and sky survey work. To this end, we have developed a technique for detecting pointlike sources of unknown number and location, given that they appear in a background which is rel

We have applied the maximum entropy method to a large data set based on Compton Gamma Ray Observatory (CGRO)/OSSE, Solar Maximum Mission, Transient Gamma-Ray Spectrometer, Gamma-Ray Imaging Spectrometer, HEXAGONE, and FIGARO observational results of

An effective field approximation, similar to the atomic Thomas-Fermi approach, is proposed for studying non-Abelian gauge theories which includes finite-volume effects. As applications of the formalism the equation of state for an SU(2) gauge theory

The gamma-ray energy region between 20 and 250 GeV is largely unexplored. Ground-based atmospheric Cherenkov detectors offer a possible way to explore this region, but large Cherenkov photon collection areas are needed to achieve low energy threshold

We describe a form of piecewise deterministic dynamics, where solutions evolve deterministically throughout most of phase space, but, in the presence of noise, make nondeterministic jumps to other solutions when the trajectory passes near a singulari

The Tracking and Imaging Gamma-Ray Experiment4 (TIGRE) uses multilayers of silicon strip detectors both as a gamma-ray converter and to track Compton recoil electrons and positron-electron pairs. The direction and energy of the Compton scattered gamm

The proposed Tracking and Imaging Gamma-Ray Experiment (TIGRE), operating in the 0.3–100 MeV energy interval, will be an efficient polarimeter with a modulation factor of ∼50% at 0.5 MeV. The polarization detection parameters of TIGRE were estima
