One million random numbers are generated from a statistically stationary process with a Gaussian distribution with mean zero and standard deviation $$\sigma_0$$. The $$\sigma_0$$ is estimated by randomly drawing out 10,000 numbers of samples ($$x_n$$). The estimates $${\widehat \sigma _1}$$, $${\widehat \sigma _2}$$ are computed in the following two ways.

$$\matrix{ {\widehat \sigma _1^2 = {1 \over {100000}}\sum\nolimits\limits_{n = 1}^{10000} {x_n^2} } & {\widehat \sigma _2^2 = {1 \over {9999}}\sum\nolimits\limits_{n = 1}^{10000} {x_n^2} } \cr } $$

Which of the following statements is true?

A
$$E(\widehat \sigma _2^2) = \sigma _0^2$$
B
$$E(\widehat \sigma _2^{}) = {\sigma _0}$$
C
$$E(\widehat \sigma _1^2) = \sigma _0^2$$
D
$$E(\widehat \sigma _1^{}) = E({\widehat \sigma _2})$$
