Let be a Poisson random measure on with constant intensity . For , denote by the line in obtained by rotating the line through an angle about the origin.
Consider the line process .
(i) What is the distribution of the number of lines intersecting the disc ?
(ii) What is the distribution of the distance from the origin to the nearest line?
