In the quarterly report of January 1995, atomization was described in terms of fragmentation of ligaments and subsequent breakup of drops into a fine spray. In this way, atomization can be considered a form of comminution. In this report, an analysis is presented which applies probability theory to atomization. In future work, the predictions of this analysis will be examined experimentally
