What this part means

A raised number can be a power. When it is a label or bound, it selects a case or the upper limit of a sum; the formula’s structure distinguishes these uses.

Its job in the formula

A raised mark can be a power or an index. Its position and the surrounding notation determine which.

The passage around this formula

Write the normalized accelerated spectrum in terms of the dimensionless ratio u ≡\equiv cΩ\Omega/a , using the exact Bose-Einstein shape derived above. Carrying out the normalization integral, ∫0∞\int_0^\infty Ω\Omega\,(e2πcΩ/ae^{2\pi c\Omega/a}-1)^{-1}\,dΩ\Omega = a2a^2/(24c2c^2) , using the standard result ∫0∞\int_0^\infty x(exe^x-1)^{-1}dx=π2\pi^2/6 , gives the scale-family form pa(Ω)=ca g(u),g(u)=24 ue2πu−1,u=cΩap_a(\Omega) = \frac{c}{a}\, g(u), \qquad g(u) = \frac{24\,u}{e^{2\pi u}-1}, \qquad u = \frac{c\Omega}{a}. Every accelerated detector’s normalized spectrum is the same universal curve g , only rescaled by a/c . For two accelerations separated by a small increment, a and a+δ\delta a , standard calculus for a scale family gives, to leading order in δ\delta a ,

An exponent tells how a base is used in multiplication. In x³, x is the base and 3 is the exponent: x³ = x × x × x.
