Popis: | Many physical processes result in very uneven, apparently random, distributions of matter, characterized by fluctuations of the local density over orders of magnitude. The density of matter in the sparsest regions can have a power-law distribution, with an exponent that we term the lacunarity exponent. We discuss a mechanism which explains the wide occurrence of these power laws, and give analytical expressions for the exponent in some simple models. Comment: 5 pages, 4 figures |
