Stilb (unit) meter. The current national standard for SI in the United States discourages the use of the stilb. formula_1 formula_2 formula_3 formula_4 formula_5 Other units of luminance: Stilb (unit) The stilb (sb) is the CGS unit of luminance for objects that are not self-luminous. It is equal to one candela per square centimeter or 10 nits (candelas per square meter). The name was coined by the French physicist André Blondel around 1920. It comes from the Greek word "stilbein" meaning "to glitter". It was in common use in Europe up to World War I. In North America self-explanatory terms such as
Random measure a random measure formula_38, the measure formula_39 satisfying for every positive measurable function formula_41 is called the intensity measure of formula_5. The intensity measure exists for every random measure and is a s-finite measure. For a random measure formula_38, the measure formula_44 satisfying for all positive measurable functions is called the supporting measure of formula_38. The supporting measure exists for all random measures and can be chosen to be finite. For a random measure formula_38, the Laplace transform is defined as for every positive measurable function formula_41. For a random measure formula_5, the integrals and formula_52 for positive formula_2-measurable formula_41
