Gompertz (Truncated Gumbel) Distribution

For x0 and c>0 . In JKB the two shape parameters b,a are reduced to the single shape-parameter c=b/a . As a is just a scale parameter when a0 . If a=0, the distribution reduces to the exponential distribution scaled by 1/b. Thus, the standard form is given as

f(x;c)=cexexp[c(ex1)]F(x;c)=1exp[c(ex1)]G(q;c)=log[11clog(1q)]
h[X]=1log(c)ecEi(1,c),

where

Ei(n,x)=1tnexp(xt)dt
