Noise distributed in a normal (Gaussian) pattern. In such a distribution, approximately 65% of all points fall within one standard deviation (s) of the mean.

See also Full Width at Tenth Maximum.

The distribution associated with the magnitude of the noise amplitude following a Gaussian distribution. The mean value of this distribution is roughly 1.25 s0, where s0 is the standard deviation of the original Gaussian distribution.

(FWTM) The width of a Gaussian or Lorentzian type curve at the tenth of its maximum height (full width at half maximum (FWHM)) and a quality measure of the sharpness of a peak (frequency peak, resolution peak) used less frequently than the FWHM measure.

(T) The system international (SI) unit of magnetic flux density. Definition: 1 T is the field intensity generating 1 N (newton) of force per ampere of current per meter of conductor. The tesla unit value is defined as a field strength of 1 weber per square meter of area, where 1 weber represents 1 x 10⁸ (100 000 000) flux lines. One T is equal to 10 000 gauss, the older (CGS) unit. A field of 1 tesla is quite strong, the Earth's magnetic flux density, at its surface, is about 50 microteslas (µT).
