Noncentral χ2 and noncentral F distributions
Let Y1,Y2,…,Yn be i.i.d. random variables with Yi ∼ N(μi,σ2),i = 1,2,…,n. If each μi = 0 then 􏰃n Y2
Q= i=1 i ∼χ2.Whatifeachμ ̸=0? σ2 n i
The m.g.f. of Q is given by 􏰏􏰍n 􏰎􏰐

Let’s examine one of these expectations:

Back to the expectation

E exp tσ2 =exp σ2(1−2t) −∞ σ√2π×exp − 2σ2 yi−1−2t dyi. If we multiply and divide by √1 − 2t we have the integral of a normal pd.f. with mean μi
Evaluate the integral using:
tyi2 (yi −μi)2 yi2(1−2t) 2μiyi μ2i
σ2−2σ2 =−2σ2+2σ2−2σ2 tμ2i 1 − 2t 􏰄
μi = σ2(1 − 2t) − 2σ2 yi − 1 − 2t
σ2 (and therefore it is equal to 1, to finally get 1−2t
