Abstract: 

Asymmetric Fano line profiles are frequently encountered, e. g., in the photoionization spectra of atoms and ions. For the fitting of spectral line profiles to experimental spectra the line profiles have to be convolved with the experimental window function. The latter is often taken to be a gaussian. It is shown that the convolution can be represented by a rather simple analytic expression involving the Faddeeva function for the evaluation of which efficient and accurate numerical algorithms are available.
