  2. Gaussian units - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaussian_units

    One difference between the Gaussian and SI systems is in the factor 4π in various formulas that relate the quantities that they define. With SI electromagnetic units, called rationalized, [3] [4] Maxwell's equations have no explicit factors of 4π in the formulae, whereas the inverse-square force laws – Coulomb's law and the Biot–Savart law – do have a factor of 4π attached to the r 2.

  3. Gaussian function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaussian_function

    More generally, if the initial mass-density is φ(x), then the mass-density at later times is obtained by taking the convolution of φ with a Gaussian function. The convolution of a function with a Gaussian is also known as a Weierstrass transform. A Gaussian function is the wave function of the ground state of the quantum harmonic oscillator.

    The electromagnetic stress–energy tensor in the International System of Quantities (ISQ), which underlies the SI, is [1] = [], where is the electromagnetic tensor and where is the Minkowski metric tensor of metric signature (− + + +) and the Einstein summation convention over repeated indices is used.

  6. Spectral line shape - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spectral_line_shape

    Ideal line shapes include Lorentzian, Gaussian and Voigt functions, whose parameters are the line position, maximum height and half-width. [1] Actual line shapes are determined principally by Doppler, collision and proximity broadening. For each system the half-width of the shape function varies with temperature, pressure (or concentration) and

  7. Q-function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Q-function

    In statistics, the Q-function is the tail distribution function of the standard normal distribution. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] In other words, Q ( x ) {\displaystyle Q(x)} is the probability that a normal (Gaussian) random variable will obtain a value larger than x {\displaystyle x} standard deviations.

  8. Normal distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normal_distribution

    All these extensions are also called normal or Gaussian laws, so a certain ambiguity in names exists. The multivariate normal distribution describes the Gaussian law in the k-dimensional Euclidean space. A vector X ∈ R k is multivariate-normally distributed if any linear combination of its components Σ k j=1 a j X j has a (univariate) normal ...
