Abstracts

After summaries on Rayleigh's distribution and Wigner's surmise, the time evolution of Rayleigh-Wigner's statistics is studied and a suitable diffusion type equation is proposed. Also the variance and kurtosis of time evolution of Rayleigh's distribution are calculated. Obtained results may be useful in description of physical, social and biological processes.
