DESCRIPTION:Stefan Hollands\, University of Leipzig\nAccording to the stan
 dard postulates of Quantum Theory\, if A is an observable with eigenvalues
  a_i\, a basis of corresponding eigenstates | i >\,  and if  | \\Psi > 
 is the state of the system\, then the probability distribution for measuri
 ng the eigenvalues is  p_i = | < \\Psi | i > |^2.\n\nIn this talk\, I de
 scribe recent joint work with C J Fewster on the probability distribution 
 of the smeared (averaged) stress tensor in chiral conformal field theory w
 hich has developed general methods to compute such distributions for vario
 us preferred choices of the state (vacuum\, thermal\, highest weight) and 
 obtained concrete probability distributions for several families of smeari
 ng functions\n
