Abstract:

Let x1,. . ., xn be n independent and identically distributed gamma variables and let the probability density function of each be given by g subscript theta x exponential to the minus x powerexponential to the theta-1 powerGammatheta. Gupta Technometrics, Vol. 21960, 243-262 gave tables for the first four moments of different gamma order statistics when n 1115 and theta 115. In this paper, the first four moments of the gamma order statistics when n 1116 and theta 0.515.5.510.5 are tabulated.
