  • FWHM can be obtained by $2\sqrt{ln2}\sigma$.

  • Peak locator algorithm used for camera angle at 1.50mm:

  • Zoomed in look at the lowest Cd peak at 06.50mm:

  • First attempt at error bars, setting y error as sqrt of count:

  • First attempt at error bars, setting y error as the square root of the count:
    Improved_Cd_0650_Gaussians_lowest_errorbar.png
  • Error bars are tiny due to incorrect assumption that data follows a poison distribution.

  • Chi squared function used:
\begin{equation} \chi2 = \sum \frac{(x_i - \mu)^2}{\sigma^2} \, . \end{equation}
  • Cd spectrum at 06.50mm with Gaussian fits, error bars and Chi squared values:
    Cd_0650_gaussian_errors_chi.png
  • Chi squared values are huge as expected due to poor fit. Once errors and fit equation are correct, Chi squared should reduce.
