Statistics & Probability Letters, 2001, vol. 54, issue 3, 227-232

Abstract: A characterization for each spherical (symmetric) distribution is presented. Moreover, a representation as a scale mixture of the Pearson type II distribution is obtained. Some extensions to the multivariate case are also considered.
