Abstract

We show that a Pearson distribution of the second kind provides a good description of signal scattering in production quality-control, the distribution of radiation intensity in collimated beams, etc. We present formulas for the moments of one-dimensional, two-dimensional, and conditional distributions. We present graphs for densities and distribution functions. An approach to increasing measurement accuracy is described.
