Abstract

We construct a model of mutually non-intersecting balls using a generalized notion of Gibbsian processes and characterize its size, i.e. radius, distribution. The explicit form of this distribution is given in the one-dimensional case, that is, mutually non-intersecting segment processes on the line.
