Abstract

For certain stationary random sets X, densities Dφ (X) of additive functionals φ are defined and formulas for are derived when K is a compact convex set in . In particular, for the quermassintegrals and motioninvariant X, these formulas are in analogy with classical integral geometric formulas. The case where X is the union set of a Poisson process Y of convex particles is considered separately. Here, formulas involving the intensity measure of Y are obtained.
