Abstract: We show that all the zeros of the Fourier transforms of the functions $\exp (-x^{2m})$, $m=1,2,\dots $, are real and simple. Then, using this result, we show that there are infinitely many polynomials $p(x_{1},\dots ,x_{n})$ such that for each $(m_{1},\dots , m_{n})\in  (\mathbb{N}\setminus \{0\})^{n}$ the translates of the function

\begin{displaymath}p(x_{1},\dots ,x_{n})\exp \left(-\sum _{j=1}^{n}x_{j}^{2m_{j}}\right)\end{displaymath}

generate $L^{1}(\mathbb{R}^{n})$. Finally, we discuss the problem of finding the minimum number of monomials $p_{\alpha }(x_{1},\dots , x_{n})$, $\alpha \in  A$, which have the property that the translates of the functions $p_{\alpha  }(x_{1},\dots , x_{n})\exp (-\sum _{j=1}^{n}x_{j}^{2m_{j}})$, $\alpha \in  A$, generate $L^{1}(\mathbb{R}^{n})$, for a given $(m_{1},\dots , m_{n})\in  (\mathbb{N}\setminus \{0\})^{n}$.
