Summary

All instrumental variations can be broken into two groups of high-frequency (fluctuations) and low-frequency (regular) variations. The laws of fluctuation distribution for neutral and meson components are studied in details, and the various factors distorting the normal-distribution law are analyzed. When the various distorting factors are correctly excluded, the fluctuation distributions become normal. This and some other assumptions are used to propose the various methods for determining the instrumental variations of both groups. It has been shown that, in some cases, the instrumental variations may be determined accurately within an error of one-two orders in excess of the statistical error.

Riassunto

Tutte le variazioni strumentali possono essere scisse in due gruppi di variazioni ad alta frequenza (fluttuazioni) e a bassa frequenza (regolari). Si studiano dettagliatamente le leggi della distribuzione delle fluttuazioni per le componenti neutrale e mesonica, e si analizzano i vari fattori che distorcono la legge della normale distribuzione. Quando i vari fattori di distorsione sono esclusi correttamente, le distribuzioni delle fluttuazioni diventano normali. Questa ed altre ipotesi sono usate per proporre i vari metodi di determinazione delle variazioni strumentali di entrambi i gruppi. Si è mostrato che, in qualche caso, le variazioni strumentali possono essere determinate accuratamente con un errore di uno o due ordini in eccesso rispetto all’errore statistico.

Резюме

Все инструментальные вариации могут быть разбиты на две группы: высокочастотные (флуктуации) и низкочастотные (регулярные) вариации. Подробно исследуются распределения флуктуаций для нейтральной и мезонной кмпонент. Анализируются различные факторы, искажающие закон нормального распределения. Когда различные искаЗающие факторы корректно исключаются, распределения флуктуаций принимают вид нормального распределения. Указанные предположения используются для обоснования различных методов определения инструментальных вариаций обеих групп. Показывается, что в некоторых случаях инструментальные вариации могут быть определены точно в пределах ошибки, на один-два порядка больше статистической ошибки.
