... it is impossible to find out anything definite about the actual mortality rate during the years covered by the left limb and dome of the [catch] curve, simply because sampling of the population is not random ... We turn then to a more promising part of the curve, the descending right limb. [When certain] conditions are satisfied, the right limb is, in actuarial language, a curve of survivorship which is both age-specific and time-specific. 3, record 1, English, - descending%20right%20limb

[...] il est impossible de rien trouver de défini sur le taux réel de mortalité durant les années couvertes par le membre gauche et le dôme de la courbe [de capture], tout simplement parce que la population n'est pas échantillonnée au hasard [...] Ceci nous amène à une partie plus prometteuse de la courbe, le membre droit descendant. [...] Si [certaines] conditions sont remplies, le membre droit est, en langage d'actuariat, une courbe de survie, particulière à la fois à l'âge et au temps. 3, record 1, French, - membre%20droit%20descendant
