Modified frequentist determination of confidence intervals for poisson distribution

We propose modified frequentist definition for the determination of confidence intervals for the case of Poisson statistics. Namely, we require that 1−β{sup ′}⩾∑{sub n=0}{sup n=n{sub o}{sub b}{sub s}+k}P(n|λ)⩾α{sup ′}. We show that this definition is equivalent to the Bayesian method with prior π(λ) ∼ λ{sup k}. We also propose modified frequentist definition for the case of nonzero background.

Fields with continuously distributed mass

We describe local field theories with continuously distributed mass. Such models can be realized as models in d > 4 space-time with Poincare invariance only in four-dimensional space-time. We also discuss some possible phenomenological consequences. Namely, we show that the Higgs boson phenomenology in the SM extension with continuously distributed Higgs boson mass can differ in a drastic way from the standard Higgs boson phenomenology.
