Reference priors for high energy physics

Journal Article Demortier, Luc ; Jain, Supriya ; Prosper, Harrison B ; ... - Physical Review. D, Particles Fields

Bayesian inferences in high energy physics often use uniform prior distributions for parameters about which little or no information is available before data are collected. The resulting posterior distributions are therefore sensitive to the choice of parametrization for the problem and may even be improper if this choice is not carefully considered. Here we describe an extensively tested methodology, known as reference analysis, which allows one to construct parametrization-invariant priors that embody the notion of minimal informativeness in a mathematically well-defined sense. We apply this methodology to general cross section measurements and show that it yields sensible results. A recentmore »« less

Reply to ''Comment on 'Small-signal analysis in high-energy physics: A Bayesian approach' ''

Journal Article Prosper, H B - Phys. Rev. D; (United States)

Williams argues for a broader interpretation of the postulate about prior probabilities presented in a recent paper (H. B. Prosper, Phys. Rev. D 37, 1153 (1988)). I argue that the interpretation of invariance used in that paper is the only reasonable interpretation if one accepts, as I do, Jaynes's basic desideratum about prior probabilities.

Reply to comment by R. Philipona on “A new absolute reference for atmospheric longwave irradiance measurements with traceability to SI units”: Reply to Comment of Dr. Philipona

Journal Article Gröbner, Julian ; Reda, Ibrahim ; Wacker, Stefan ; ... - Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres

Atmospheric longwave irradiance is currently not metrologically traceable. Traceability requires formal comparisons in the framwork of the CIPM MRA. A task team on Radiation has been created by the WMO to address these issues.

Reply to Comment on"Coherent rho0 photoproduction in bulk matter at high energies"

Journal Article Couderc, E ; Klein, S - Physical Review Letters

In their interesting comment on 'Coherent {rho}0 photoproduction in bulk matter at high energies', Rogers and Strikman point out that, at high energies, q{bar q} dipoles with small separations (d) become more important, and that most of the growth of the cross-section is 'driven by the increasingly large contributions from small size (high mass) configurations'; at photon energies of 10{sup 20} eV, over half of the total cross-section is due to dipoles smaller than 0.25 fm. They state that charm production will increase, and may be as much as 30% of the cross-section. The coherent photoproduction of heavier states requiresmore »« less
