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.
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.
The product of two Gaussian probability density functions (PDFs), though, is not in general a Gaussian PDF. Taking the Fourier transform (unitary, angular-frequency convention) of a Gaussian function with parameters a = 1 , b = 0 and c yields another Gaussian function, with parameters c {\displaystyle c} , b = 0 and 1 / c {\displaystyle 1/c ...
The formulas above are clearly simpler in HL units compared to either SI or Gaussian units. As Heaviside proposed, removing the 4 π from the Gauss law and putting it in the Force law considerably reduces the number of places the π appears compared to Gaussian CGS units.

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 ...

Common integrals in quantum field theory are all variations and generalizations of Gaussian integrals to the complex plane and to multiple dimensions. [1]: 13–15 Other integrals can be approximated by versions of the Gaussian integral. Fourier integrals are also considered.
