Characterizations of the dispersive order of distributions by the Laplace transform

Characterizations of the dispersive order in terms of the Laplace transform are derived from a relation between the dispersive and star orders and recent results of Bartoszewicz (1998). Inequalities for the Laplace transforms of distributions and hazard rate functions are obtained as corollaries.
