Brownian excursion the Airy function and formula_22 is the confluent hypergeometric function. Janson and Louchard (2007) show that and They also give higher-order expansions in both cases. Janson (2007) gives moments of formula_19 and many other area functionals. In particular, Brownian excursions also arise in connection with queuing problems, railway traffic, and the heights of random rooted binary trees. Brownian excursion In probability theory a Brownian excursion process is a stochastic process that is closely related to a Wiener process (or Brownian motion). Realisations of Brownian excursion processes are essentially just realizations of a Wiener process selected to satisfy certain conditions. In
Brownian motion motion can be measured as "v" = Δ"x"/Δ"t", when Δ"t" « "τ", where "τ" is the momentum relaxation time. In 2010, the instantaneous velocity of a Brownian particle (a glass microsphere trapped in air with optical tweezers) was measured successfully. The velocity data verified the Maxwell–Boltzmann velocity distribution, and the equipartition theorem for a Brownian particle. In stellar dynamics, a massive body (star, black hole, etc.) can experience Brownian motion as it responds to gravitational forces from surrounding stars. The rms velocity "V" of the massive object, of mass "M", is related to the rms velocity formula_34 of the background
