Investigation of Errors of Observation

Rupert Thomas Leslie

Journal of the Royal Statistical Society Series C, 1954, vol. 3, issue 2, 112-115

Abstract: The statistical theory of errors is often applied to measuring the precision of observations of physical quantities without due consideration being given to the question of the independence of errors from various sources, and it is a long time since this problem was examined experimentally. Mr Leslie describes an apparatus with which he intends making an investigation and states some preliminary results.
