  2. Gauss's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gauss's_law

    In physics (specifically electromagnetism), Gauss's law, also known as Gauss's flux theorem (or sometimes Gauss's theorem), is one of Maxwell's equations. It is an application of the divergence theorem , and it relates the distribution of electric charge to the resulting electric field .

  3. Normal distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normal_distribution

    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 distribution. The variance of X is a k×k symmetric positive-definite matrix V.

  4. Divergence theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Divergence_theorem

    Any inverse-square law can instead be written in a Gauss's law-type form (with a differential and integral form, as described above). Two examples are Gauss's law (in electrostatics), which follows from the inverse-square Coulomb's law, and Gauss's law for gravity, which follows from the inverse-square Newton's law of universal gravitation. The ...

  5. Gaussian function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaussian_function

    It is named after the mathematician Carl Friedrich Gauss. The graph of a Gaussian is a characteristic symmetric " bell curve " shape. The parameter a is the height of the curve's peak, b is the position of the center of the peak, and c (the standard deviation , sometimes called the Gaussian RMS width) controls the width of the "bell".

  7. Gaussian surface - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaussian_surface

    It is an arbitrary closed surface S = ∂V (the boundary of a 3-dimensional region V) used in conjunction with Gauss's law for the corresponding field (Gauss's law, Gauss's law for magnetism, or Gauss's law for gravity) by performing a surface integral, in order to calculate the total amount of the source quantity enclosed; e.g., amount of ...

    For example, the multivariate skewness test is not consistent against symmetric non-normal alternatives. [ 39 ] The BHEP test [ 40 ] computes the norm of the difference between the empirical characteristic function and the theoretical characteristic function of the normal distribution.
