On the Distribution of the Autocorrelation Coefficients of a Series of Normal Deviates.

Abstract

The purpose of this memorandum is to derive the statistical distribution of autocorrelation coefficients of various orders of a long series of supposedly independent normal deviates. The intention is to provide a theory on the basis of which probability statements can be made about series of artificially generated normal deviates to be used, for instance, in computer simulations.
