Jan 26, 2017 at 12:08 comment added BowPark Ok and thank you also for the precisation about the complex conjugate. The term $ikz$ gives little confusion in fact. But, first of all: are you basically stating that $A(\omega)$ is the Fourier Transform of the time-domain signal corresponding to the wave packet?
Jan 26, 2017 at 11:49 comment added Emilio Pisanty You're correct about the conjugate, I think, that was hasty writing. Your objection about the $kz$ term is unfounded, however (e.g. it can simply be folded into the time; keep in mind that $k=\omega/c$). And either way it's not crucial to the core of the question as posed.
