ABSTRACT: We obtain an infinite series expression for the joint probability density function of occupation times in a Three-State Markov chain. By extending the identity given by Darroch, we ...

The Gazette offers audio versions of articles using Instaread. Some words may be mispronounced. CEDAR RAPIDS — Alliant Energy will start construction on a new power plant in Cedar Rapids — called the ...

This story is part of the optimistic argument for the future of the planet in our special issue on Earth Day. Read the pessimistic argument and the rest of our stories here.

Solar and wind accounted for almost 96% of new US electrical generating capacity added in the first third of 2025. In April, solar provided 87% of new capacity, making it the 20th consecutive month ...

A team has discovered how certain bacteria breathe by generating electricity, using a natural process that pushes electrons into their surroundings instead of breathing on oxygen. The findings could ...

In a series of recent works, an interesting quantum generative model based on parameterized instantaneous polynomial quantum (IQP) circuits has emerged as they can be trained efficiently classically ...

Less than two weeks after the smokestacks and towers were imploded at the former Homer City Generating Station in Indiana County, the owners on Wednesday announced plans to turn what was once ...

A trio of physicists from Princeton University, CIT's Jet Propulsion Laboratory and Spectral Sensor Solutions, all in the U.S., is proposing the possibility of generating electricity using energy from ...

Life is uncertain. None of us know what is going to happen. We know little of what has happened in the past or is happening now outside our immediate experience. Uncertainty has been called the ...

As is well known, the normal distribution is a key tool in probability and statistics. It can be described as a distribution that obeys a universal rule derived from one of the most important theorems ...

Abstract: This paper presents an analysis of the average bit error probability (ABEP) based on the moment generating function (MGF) over the Beaulieu-Xie fading ...
