DESCRIPTION:We consider a model of a population of fixed size $N$ in which
  each individual acquires beneficial mutations at rate $mu$.  Each individ
 ual dies at rate one\, and when a death occurs\, an individual is chosen w
 ith probability proportional to the individual's fitness to give birth.  W
 e obtain rigorous results for the rate at which mutations accumulate in th
 e population\, the distribution of the fitnesses of individuals in the pop
 ulation at a given time\, and the genealogy of the population.  Our result
 s confirm predictions of Desai and Fisher (2007)\, Desai\, Walczak\, and F
 isher (2013)\, and Neher and Hallatschek (2013).\n
