A note on the analytic approximation of exceedance probabilities in heterogeneous populations

This note derives analytic approximations to exceedance probabilities for order statistics from two heterogeneous populations. A limitation of this approach is that it entails a special condition that needs to be checked or justified on a case by case basis.
