Abstract.

Random variables corresponding to weight functions of the Askey scheme for continuous polynomials are introduced. Beside normal, Beta and Gamma distributions four new families of real random variables corresponding to Wilson, continuous dual Hahn, continuous Hahn and Meixner–Pollaczek polynomials are discussed. Formulas for the moments and asymptotic behavior of the tails of the distributions are provided.
