4.5.4 Synergistic Activities
1. In 1989, Morris Swartz became interested in the statistical problem of setting Poisson limits
on processes for which there was non-negligible statistical uncertainty on the normalizing
process. His work, “An improved method for setting upper limits with small numbers of
events”, is applicable to cases in which small numbers of events are compared (often true
medical science) and is published in Nucl. Instrum. Meth. A294, 278 (1990).
