Hello,
How could you help me with this course work?
Problem : (Use R to answer )
X-ray Flares Assigned: 24 November Due: 18 December (5:00 PM) Maximum Mark: 15 Points You are analyzing an object that normally does not produce X-rays, but every once in a while it flares up, emits a huge number (S) of X-rays randomly in all directions, and then fades away. Each flare is thought to be basically identical. We have placed a detector near the source, which is expected to intercept one out of every thousand X-ray photons on average. However, the actual number of X-ray photons received during each flare may differ due to counting statistics.
1. What is an approximate 95% credible interval on S, if n=5? (Assume flat priors. You can estimate the limits of the interval numerically.)
Thank you
Hear you soon
