Cut-off parameter

The result (9.19) should not depend on the cut-off parameter e, but a pragmatic choice is necessary for a practical calculation. It is clear that the practical success of such an approach depends on the availability of a parameter e that cuts off both distributions to a measurable extent. This formula therefore expresses the basic idea of histogram overlap procedures [21, 22] see Fig. 9.5, p. 345, for an example. 

Here E(, an energy cut-off parameter, and have been adjusted to be -0.27 and 0.26 eV respectively for all hydrocarbon liquids. Application of the semiclassi-cal effective medium theory then gives the average mobility as... 

The DIFFE program (Blessing and Smith, 1999) rejects data pairs ( Ei, IE2I) [i.e. SIR pairs ( Ep, EphI)/ sad pairs ( E- -, E— ), and pseudo-SlR dispersive pairs ( E). 11, x2l)] or difference E magnitudes ( EaD that are not significantly different from zero or deviate markedly from the expected distribution. The following tests are applied where the default values for the cut-off parameters (T jaXa XmiN/ ZmiN/ and Zmax), are shown in... 

The cut off parameter a is of order unity. Its value is somewhat arbitrary, reflecting the inability of this continuous spectrum to represent the long time behavior of the Rouse model precisely. Thus, with Eq. (4.33) and Eqs. (3.24) and (3.25) ...

At energies below the pairing energy, the value of a2 is arbitrarily held constant and equal to (6/tt2) (A A2/3).

The models treated by these authors differ not only in the choice of the coupling constants, i. e. whether the backward scattering is included or not, but also in the choice of the physical cut-off parameter. The cut-off has to be introduced in any perturbational calculation to avoid the ultraviolet non-physical divergences. In the field theoretical treatment of the corresponding models (7) the cut-off plays no role since the Thirring model is renormalizable in field theoretical sense, in the statistical mechanical treatment, however, we will keep the cut-off. 

The SI value that is used as a cut-off parameter for prioritizing those samples that possess the most potent and selective antimalarial activity is somewhat subjective due to the nature of the work involved. In the preliminary stages of the work, a cutoff is established such that the volume of samples that are subjected to bioassay-directed fractionation and further analysis is limited to a practical number. Ideally, the SI cut-off should be as high as possible and in our laboratory it is presently around 100 however, we are limited by the activities of the samples at hand. It is also meaningful to consider that if the cut-off is set too high, many potentially important lead compounds may be discarded for the sake of pursuing the ideal drug. 

This implies that a cut-off limit must be established for functional depths, so that the observations incorrectly classified as outliers do not exceed 1% [9], A bootstrap process is made to determine the cut-off limit [10], which calculates this cut-off parameter by determining functions with depths below the calculated value as functional outliers. This is proposed below for the first time as a valid tool for the analysis of quality characteristics of electrical power systems and particularly for the analysis of harmonics. 

Once the basis is defined, the corresponding DVR is determined by the numben of basis fimctions in each degree of freedom np, n, n. These determine the quadrature error and convergence possible within the basis. The sequential diagonalizatitm-truncation procedure defined in the last section depends on three cut-off parameters, Vj y, Ef y lD), andEMAx( )- These affect the variational errcMr and efficiency. We illustrate these two... 

The most important interaction is that of the electron with the solvent molecules (ammonia). Again, this is represented as a pseudo potential. The results depend on the choice of cut-off parameter, used in the Shaw... 

Results with a certain degree of reliability from MD simulations of aqueous solutions reported up to now are restricted to structural properties of such solutions. In the section on aqueous solutions below very preliminary velocity autocorrelation functions are calculated from an improved simulation of a 9.55 molal NaCl solution. The problem connected with the stability of the system and the different cut-off parameters for ion-ion, ion-water and water-water interactions are discussed. Necessary steps in order to achieve quantitative results for various dynamical properties of aqueous electrolyte solutions are considered.
