Hello, Sir/Madam,

How could you help me with this course work?

Problem 9: (Use R_studio to Answer)

X-ray Flares Assigned: 24 November Due: 18 December (5:00 PM) Maximum Mark: 15 Points You are analyzing an object that normally does not produce X-rays, but every once in a while it flares up, emits a huge number (S) of X-rays randomly in all directions, and then fades away. Each flare is thought to be basically identical. We have placed a detector near the source, which is expected to intercept one out of every thousand X-ray photons on average. However, the actual number of X-ray photons received during each flare may differ due to counting statistics.

1. After a long wait, the source finally flares and we count a total of n = 5 X-ray photons in our detector. Based on this measurement, and knowing that the detector intercepts 1 in 1000 photons on average, estimate the value of S and provide a (non-approximate) 95% frequentist confidence interval.

Thank you

Hear you soon
