Updated arXiv articles

Three of my articles posted to arXiv.org have been updated:
Mostly it is fairly minor corrections, however for the first article I have added a whole new appendix on how one of the equations is derived.  When I first wrote the article, I had thought that the derivation was trivial enough that it could be omitted.  I now realize that this is somewhat presumptive and arrogant and that not everyone has the time or inclination to sit down trying to derive complex formulas.  In a piece of writing whose job it is to convey information, better to include too much than too little.
