ZDD - [Q] Error Model (Symmetric)

This is the Zero Distortion Density (ZDD) used in the GenHVL[Q] models. This generalized normal's a₁ center parameter is the mean of the underlying Normal. The a₃ parameter in the ZDD nomenclature adjusts the fourth moment or kurtosis of the peak. This ZDD has no asymmetry or skew adjustment.

This is also the ZDD used in the GenNLC[Q] models. For the GenNLC[Q] models, a₀, a₁, and a₃ will be identical. The a₂ width or second moment term will reflect a kinetic time constant. Please see the GenHVL and GenNLC equivalence topic for further details.

[Q] ZDD

a₀ = Area

a₁ = Center

a₂ = Width

a₃= Error model power (.25 > a₃ > 4 , Laplace=1, Gaussian=2)
