For positive parameters \(\lambda\) and \(\mu\) for an arbitrary \(u\in L^ 1(\mathbb{R})\) define the integral operator \(K_{\lambda,\mu}\) by the formula \((K_{\lambda,\mu}u)(x) = \int^{+\infty}_{-\infty}\exp(-(\lambda x- \mu y)^ 2)u(y)dy\). The author proves that the operator \(K_{\lambda,\mu}\) maps continuously the space \(L^ 1(\mathbb{R})\) into \(L(\mathbb{R})\) and its Kuratowski measure of noncompactness \(\alpha(K_{\lambda,\mu})\) has the following bounds: \[ (\pi/2)^{1/4}\lambda^{-1/2}(d_ \mu)^{1/2}\leq \alpha(K_{\lambda,\mu}) \leq (\pi/2)^{1/4}\lambda^{-1/2}, \] where \(d_ \mu = \int^ t_ 0\int^ 1_ 0\exp(-\mu^ 2(x-y)^ 2/2)dx\;dy\). This inequality implies that \(K_{\lambda,\mu}\) is not compact.
