This note discusses how separate asymmetric errors on a single result should be combined, and how several results with asymmetric errors should be combined to give an overall measurement. In the process it considers several methods for parametrising curves that are approximately parabolic.14 pages, 5 figuresData Analysis, Statistics and ProbabilityHigh Energy Physics - ExperimentAsymmetric Statistical Errorstext
