Abstract: Given a probability distribution $mu$ a set $Lambda(mu)$ of positive real numbers is introduced, so that $Lambda(mu)$ measures the "divisibility" of $mu$. The basic properties of $Lambda(mu)$ are described and examples of probability distributions are given, which exhibit the existence of a continuum of situations interpolating the extreme cases of infinitely and minimally divisible probability distributions.
