Sep 20, 2016 at 16:20 comment added Tim @GermanDemidov it is hard to answer about appropriateness of t distribution without knowing more context but, for example, regression with t distributed errors is used as more robust approach to standard regression etc.
Sep 20, 2016 at 15:25 comment added German Demidov Thank you. The problem is that I know it, but when this question arised within the complex problem, I became somehow retarded and forgot the simple things...I hope this question will help somebody in the future not to spend 3 hours on such a simple thing =) will share the bounty tomorrow, it does not let me do it. The another question is: is it useful to use robust estimation of $\sigma$ and Student t-distribution as likelihood measure?
