The Doppler parameter, or Doppler broadening parameter, usually denoted as , is a parameter commonly used in astrophysics to characterize the width of observed spectral lines of astronomical objects. It is defined as
,
where is the one-dimensional velocity dispersion (Draine 2011, p. 58). Given this parameter, the velocity distribution of the line-emitting/absorbing atoms and ions proximated by a Gaussian can be rewritten as
,
where is the probability of the velocity along the line of sight being in the interval .
The line width is also often specified in terms of the FWHM (full width at half maximum), which is
