Step background function
HyperLab also fits regions with sharp background steps under the peaks.
This stepped background accounts for a Compton edge. Steps are fitted by one characteristic parameter, the Step Amplitude, which is relative to the amplitude of the Gaussian.
The picture shows a step with relative Amplitude=0.10.
Step's counts may be calculated by the following formula at channel x:
where
STAmpl:
Step Amplitude relative to that of Gaussian
Ampl:
Amplitude of Gaussian
Width:
Gaussian width (Width = FWHM/1.66)
