Lagrangian one-particle velocity statistics in a turbulent flow (2006)

Berg, J.

We present Lagrangian one-particle statistics from the Risoe PTV experiment of a turbulent flow. We estimate the Lagrangian Kolmogorov constant $C_0$ and find that it is affected by the large scale...

Partial NSD1 deletions cause 5% of Sotos syndrome and are readily identifiable by multiplex ligation dependent probe amplification (2005)

Douglas, J., Tatton-Brown, K., Coleman, K., Guerrero, S., Berg, J., Cole, T.R., ...

Background: Most cases of Sotos syndrome are caused by intragenic NSD1 mutations or 5q35 microdeletions. It is uncertain whether allelic or genetic heterogeneity underlies the residual cases and it...

Asymptotic expected number of Nash equilibria of two-player normal form games (2005)

McLennan, A, Berg, J

The formula given by McLennan [The mean number of real roots of a multihomogeneous system of polynomial equations, Amer. J. Math. 124 (2002) 49-73] is applied to the mean number of Nash equilibria of...

Airborne Asian dust: case study of long-range transport and implications for the detection of volcanic ash (2003)

Simpson, James J, Hufford, G L, Servranckx, R, Berg, J, Pieri, D

The transport of fine-grained Asian dust from its source (e.g., the Gobi Desert, Mongolia) to North America is a common springtime phenomenon. Because of its chemical composition (silicon, iron,...

A silicon structure for electrical characterisation of nanoscale elements (2001)

Sazio, P.J.A., Berg, J., See, P., Ford, C.J.B., Lundgren, P., Greenham, N.C., ...

The problem of mass manufacturing electrode structures suitable for contacting nanoscale elements lies primarily in the difficulty of fabricating a nanometre-scale gap between two electrodes in a...

Entropy and typical properties of Nash equilibria in two-player games (2000)

J. Berg, M. Weigt

We use techniques from the statistical mechanics of disordered systems to analyse the properties of Nash equilibria of bimatrix games with large random payoff matrices. By means of an annealed bound,...

Matrix Games, Mixed Strategies, and Statistical Mechanics (1998)

Berg, J., Engel, A.

Matrix games constitute a fundamental problem of game theory and describe a situation of two players with completely conflicting interests. We show how methods from statistical mechanics can be used...

A multifractal phase-space analysis of perceptrons with biased patterns (1997)

Berg, J., Engel, A.

We calculate the multifractal spectrum of the partition of the coupling space of a perceptron induced by random input-output pairs with non-zero mean. From the results we infer the influence of the...

Properties of the miss ratio for a 2-level storage model with LRU or FIFO replacement strategy and Independent References (1993)

J. Berg, D. Towsley

We consider the behavior of a 2-level storage system operating with the LRU or the FIFO replacement strategy where accesses to the main storage are described by the independent reference model (IRM)....

Bispecific antibodies that mediate killing of cells infected with human immunodeficiency virus of any strain.

Berg, J, Lötscher, E, Steimer, K S, Capon, D J, Baenziger, J, Jäck, H M, ...

Although AIDS patients lose human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-specific cytotoxic T cells, their remaining CD8-positive T lymphocytes maintain cytotoxic function. To exploit this fact we have...

Modifying the request behaviour of clinicians.

Gama, R, Nightingale, P G, Broughton, P M, Peters, M, Ratcliffe, J G, Bradby, G V, ...

Aim: To evaluate whether the feedback of laboratory use and cost data to clinicians modifies their request behaviour. METHODS: Over two years the effect of monthly feedback of clinical chemistry test...

Chandy, K G, Hübscher, S G, Elias, E, Berg, J, Khan, M, Burnett, D
