The Truncated Lindley Distribution with Applications in Astrophysics

Blog Article

This paper reviews the Lindley distribution and then introduces the scale and the double truncation.The unknown parameters of the truncated Lindley distribution are evaluated with the maximum likelihood estimators.An application of Pillow the Lindley distribution with scale is done to the initial mass function for stars.The magnitude version of the Lindley distribution with scale is applied to the luminosity function for the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) galaxies and to the photometric maximum of the 2MASS Redshift Survey (2MRS) galaxies.The truncated Lindley luminosity function allows to model the Malquist bias Feet Serum of the 2MRS galaxies.
