  • Abstract
    It is suggested that the chord length distribution method could be useful for predicting double-bit upset rates in certain circumstances. A chord length distribution function for simultaneous path lengths in two parallelepipeds, applicable to a unidirectional flux, is derived. A proof of the system is outlined for the case under consideration
