Chord Length Distributions of the Hemisphere

Wilfried Gille

Abstract

The distribution laws for two types of isotropic uniform random chords of the hemisphere, cap-chords and basic-chords, are investigated separately. From both distribution densities, the chord length distribution density of the whole hemisphere is derived.
