Primes

• Inspection Paradox
  • In astronomy, flux-limited surveys (Malmquist bias) over-represent intrinsically bright objects, with luminosity playing the role of length.
• Silence as Signal
  • Astronomy. Objects below a survey's detection threshold are absent from catalogs, and absence is sometimes read as a true population claim rather than a detection artefact — the case Malmquist bias formally corrects.

    This sourceFormalizes Malmquist bias, correcting the misreading of survey-threshold non-detections as true population absence.
