 Solution

For the Gaussian function, direct differentiation gives $f^{\prime }=-tf$. Applying the Fourier transform identities from part (a),Solving this first-order ordinary differential equation givesIn fact, the normalization can also be fixed: the Gaussian integral gives $F(0)={\int }_{\mathbb{R}}{e}^{-t^2/2}dt=\sqrt{2\pi }$, so $C=\sqrt{2\pi }$ with the convention used here. The transform has the same Gaussian shape.
