Hitting spheres by straight-line motion or Brownian motion
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 14 July 2016
Abstract
Points randomly placed in Rn are independently assigned a speed and direction of motion. The time between collisions with a central n-sphere is obtained. If instead of straight-line motion the points perform Brownian motion, the analogous inter-collision-time distribution is obtained.
