16. γ can be also taken to be complex if the real part is positive; a slight generalization of the final result is then necessary; K. G. Kay, J. Chem. Phys. 100, 4377 (1994).
17. Especially for TGA, this is not the optimum choice for the numerics but there is no straightforward way to optimze the width parameter and, there-fore, we stick to this simple choice.
