TABLE 2.

The relevant parameters for the β–particle tracks per cell in a track autoradiography experiment (18) by employing the Poisson, LN and P – LN functions along with the quantities of statistical tests (χ̂² and/or R²) for the stirred and unstirred mixture.

Type	Predicted function	<n> ^‡	σ^§	v	χ̂²	R²
Stirred mixture	Poisson	8.7	—	22	0.15	—
	LN	8.7	0.70	20	0.0071	—
	P – LN	8.7	0.80	20	0.0064	—
	LS fit to LN	12 ± 1.4	0.79 ± 0.075	20	0.0048	0.79

Unstirred mixture	Poisson	7.8	—	21	0.99	—
	LN	7.8	0.67	20	0.0077	—
	P – LN	7.8	0.68	20	0.0046	—
	LS fit to LN	8.2 ± 0.37	0.57 ± 0.033	20	0.018	0.93

The value of arithmetic mean (<n>) and the shape parameter (σ) are obtained from the raw data of (18) and the minimization of χ̂² value, respectively.
