30.1.179 Voigt


Function

y=y_0+A\frac{2\ln 2}{\pi ^{3/2}}\frac{W_L}{W_G^2}\int_{-\infty }^\infty \frac{e^{-t^2}}{\left( \sqrt{\ln 2}\frac{W_L}{W_G}\right) ^2+\left( \sqrt{4\ln 2}\frac{x-x_c}{W_G}-t\right) ^2}dt

The convolution formula is:

y=y_0+\int_{-\infty }^\infty(f_1 \ast f_2) dx

where

f_1\left(x \right)=\frac{2A}{\pi}\frac{w_{L}}{4\left(x-x_c \right )^2+w_{L}^{2}}

and

f_2\left(x \right)=\sqrt{\frac{4\ln2}{\pi}}\frac{e^{-\frac{4\ln2}{w_{G}^{2}}*x^{2}}}{w_{G}}
