This is clearly based on the German ß and isn’t some typographical variation. Undelete. (((Romanophile))) (contributions) 15:59, 4 April 2023 (UTC)Reply

Is there evidence of usage of Gaußian in English texts? And I still don't see how this isn't a variation on Gaussian, using the German ß. – Guitarmankev1 (talk) 17:14, 4 April 2023 (UTC)Reply

There isn't any incentive to use it, unless you can switch to a German keyboard. The German spelling, Gaußsch, doesn't match it either. DonnanZ (talk) 18:03, 4 April 2023 (UTC)Reply
  • Undelete. In all of my years of reading math texts in classes and industry I have never seen this spelling nor do I have any idea why it would ever be preferred over Gaussian in English texts, but you are correct that it is apparently well-attested in Google Books. – Guitarmankev1 (talk) 12:39, 6 April 2023 (UTC)Reply
