    Any good references on DNA profiling statistic methods?

    I don't want to get into a specific instance. I will spell out the issue. Here's a statement from a DNA report The probability of randomly selecting an unrelated individual that could have contributed to this mixture is 1 person in 1 billion in the Caucasian and Southwestern Hispanic...

    Any good references on DNA profiling statistic methods?

    Ok ... kind of disturbing that no on can answer this. How bout this. Does anyone have an opinion on the mathematical rigor of DNA profiling?

    Any good references on DNA profiling statistic methods?

    I'm looking for papers or other references on DNA profiling statistics. Something comprehensive that covers the whole shebang. I kind of troubled by some of the match probabilities being linked to "race" i.e. Caucasian. I'm not even sure what Caucasian even means scientifically. What happens...

    Electromagnetic radiation vs Capacitance and Inductance

    I should also add you might want to check out some of the work of HG Schantz

    Electromagnetic radiation vs Capacitance and Inductance

    Wireless power transmission uses near field not far field "radiation". Near field effects fall off exponentially from the surface of the emitter. Technically, the E field and B field are decoupled. All kinds of strange things happen in the near field.

    Why is America in debt and how can we fix it?

    Debt is rolled over. The very first US gov't bond ever issued is still outstanding. The national debt means very little. I should also add the US gov't doesn't adhere to GAPP. The accounting was changed to make the US gov't look broke by changing some accounting items which were based on...

    Is Wireless Energy Transmission Efficient and Practical?

    The Wardencliff Tower was not wireless power distribution. It used the Earth as a wire. As far as wireless power transmission goes, Bingnan Wang has achieved the highest efficiencies I know of using a metamaterial array. https://merl.com/publications/docs/TR2014-096.pdf

    Will a faraday cage stop gamma rays?

    Can a faraday cage be used to stop the radiation at the Japanese reactor? If not why not? I know the frequencty is high but what if you pulsed DC current at the same frequency would that stop it?

    Steady direct current question

    Sorry about starting a fight oops.. What I had in mind though was a high tension line or a parallel plate capacitor running at say 40,000V. I makes sense that it is the strength of the electric field affecting the electronic device's changing current and not EM radiation. If that's the...

    Steady direct current question

    I have a question (possibly dumb) if someone could humor me with an explanation . I understand that steady currents don't create electromagnetic radiation. If that's true how does a high-voltage steady DC current create interference? For that matter why does a high voltage capacitor create...

    Effect of Negative permittivity?

    Does anyone know how quantum theory accounts for a ε value that is negative? Wouldn't this change probability densities?
