Because , is locally integrable at the origin and has only polynomial growth at infinity, so it defines a tempered distribution. It is a homogeneous distribution of degree and is radial. Its Fourier transform is therefore radial and homogeneous of degree , so it must have the form . In particular, .
To determine the constant, use the stated Gamma integral representation, Fubini's theorem, and the Fourier transform of a Gaussian:The change of variables formula then givesThis is precisely the Fourier transform of the Riesz kernel.

The positive integrand factors into three one-variable functions on a rectangular domain. Fubini's theorem therefore gives
Differentiate the rewritten expression. Its new kernel vanishes at the moving upper endpoint, and its partial derivative is an integrable inverse square root.
