Abstract: For a set $AsubsetC[0,infty)$, we give new results on the growth of the number of particles in a dyadic branching Brownian motion whose paths fall within A. We show that it is possible to work without rescaling the paths. We give large deviations probabilities as well as a more sophisticated proof of a result on growth in the number of particles along certain sets of paths. Our results reveal that the number of particles can oscillate dramatically. As a byproduct of our methods we also obtain new results on the number of particles near the frontier of the model. The methods used are entirely probabilistic.
