English term or phrase: fat tail
ciao ciao

quando si parla di distribuzioni statistiche (funzioni di densità di probabilità), come si traduce il termine "fat tail"? Coda alta?

The generalized presence of fat tails in the distribution implies much more structure in the growth dynamics than generally assumed.

Fat tail is a property of some probability distributions (alternatively referred to as heavy tail distributions) exhibiting extremely large kurtosis particularly relative to the ubiquitous normal which itself is an example of an exceptionally thin tail distribution
