Nearest-neighbor-spacing Distribution of People Sitting along the Bank of Kyoto's Kamogawa River

Abstract

Nearest-neighbor-spacing distributions of people sitting along the west bank of the Kamogawa River flowing through the central part of Kyoto City are derived, based on a dual partitioning process with a fixed ratio. The theoretical asymmetric bell-shaped distribution is compared with previous measurements. This was performed as an advanced study of high school students that does not follow the curriculum guidelines of Japanese high schools.
