  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

    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 ...

  4. 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 ...

  5. Electromagnetic stress–energy tensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_stress...

    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. Isserlis' theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isserlis'_theorem

    In probability theory, Isserlis' theorem or Wick's probability theorem is a formula that allows one to compute higher-order moments of the multivariate normal distribution in terms of its covariance matrix. It is named after Leon Isserlis.

  7. Multivariate normal distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multivariate_normal...

    Another way is to define the cdf () as the probability that a sample lies inside the ellipsoid determined by its Mahalanobis distance from the Gaussian, a direct generalization of the standard deviation. [13] In order to compute the values of this function, closed analytic formula exist, [13] as follows.

  8. Gaussian measure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaussian_measure

    Gaussian measures with mean = are known as centered Gaussian measures. The Dirac measure δ μ {\displaystyle \delta _{\mu }} is the weak limit of γ μ , σ 2 n {\displaystyle \gamma _{\mu ,\sigma ^{2}}^{n}} as σ → 0 {\displaystyle \sigma \to 0} , and is considered to be a degenerate Gaussian measure ; in contrast, Gaussian measures with ...
