@caesoma, many thanks for your time and explanation! This is helpful. Yes, I just wanted to make it as in the equation.  
Would you be so kind to tell me how to update this model to the robust one? I tried, but my results are very bad. I asked a very similar question [here](https://discourse.mc-stan.org/t/updating-gaussian-multiple-regression-code-and-building-a-robust-model/22445).
