Data Analysis

Gamma Spectroscopy

Show your measurement of the background radiation. Fit the $\ce{^{40}K}$ peak in Python using the Breit-Wigner distribution. Show your calibration equation using the $\ce{^{40}K}$ peak.
Use the data from all of the measured isotopes to calibrate the detector using a weighted, least-squares fit. Is the result statistically different from the calibration using $\ce{^{40}K}$ ?
