Scale Mixture of Maxwell-Boltzmann Distribution

This paper presents a new distribution, the product of mixture between Maxwell-Boltzmann and particular case generalized gamma distributions. The resulting called Scale Mixture Maxwell-Boltzmann, greater kurtosis than recently introduced slash distribution. We obtained closed-form expressions for its probability density cumulative distribution functions. studied some properties moments, as well skewness coefficients. Parameters were estimated by moments maximum likelihood methods, via Expectation-Maximization algorithm latter case. A simulation study was performed to illustrate parameter recovery. results an application real data set indicate that model performs very in presence outliers compared with other alternatives literature.
