What is the difference between poisson distribution and poisson process?

A poisson process is a non-deterministic process where events occur continuously and independently of each other. An example of a poisson process is the radioactive decay of radionuclides. A poisson distribution is a discrete probability distribution that represents the probability of events (having a poisson process) occurring in a certain period of time.


Why poisson ration is less than 0.5?

The Poisson's ratio, which measures the ratio of lateral strain to axial strain in materials, is typically less than 0.5 because of the physical constraints imposed by the material's atomic structure. A value of 0.5 would imply incompressibility, where a material's volume does not change under deformation, which is not physically feasible for most materials under normal conditions. Additionally, exceeding this limit would lead to non-physical predictions, such as negative volume changes, which are not observed in real materials. Thus, the maximum practical Poisson's ratio is constrained to values less than 0.5.


If X has Poisson distribution does aX plus b have Poisson Distribution?

Yes.


What is the maximum value of X minus the minimum value of X?

The maximum value of X minus the minimum value of X is calculated by subtracting the minimum value from the maximum value. This difference represents the range of the values of X. If you have specific values for X, you can determine the maximum and minimum values and then compute this difference accordingly.
