## Nomenclature
| Style | Meaning|
|----------|----------|
| SARFE10-PSSS059:**SPECTRUM***|Raw spectral data |
| SARFE10-PSSS059:**FIT*** | Results of Gaussian fit |
| SARFE10-PSSS059:**SPECT*** | Statistics from the raw (without fit) spectrum |
| SARFE10-PSSS059:**AVG*** | Data calculated from average (not single shot) spectra |
## Concepts
**Width and center**
Spectral width and central energy are calculated by both a Gaussian fit and directly from the spectra. Depending on the spectral intensity profile, the Gaussian may return a poor representation of the spectra, for example for a spectral with a long tail. Before both fitting and calculation the spiky single shot spectra are smoothed with a savgol filter:
```
# smooth the spectrum with savgol filter with 51 window size and 3rd order polynomial
smoothed_spectrum = scipy.signal.savgol_filter(spectrum, 51, 3)
```
The standard deviation and center of mass for the spectra are calculated as:
```
smoothed_spectrum_normed = smoothed_spectrum / np.sum(smoothed_spectrum)
spectrum_com = np.sum(axis * smoothed_spectrum_normed)
spectrum_std = np.sqrt(np.sum((axis - spectrum_com) ** 2 * smoothed_spectrum_normed))
```
**Relative energy spread**
Channels ending in **RES** are a measure of the relative energy spread in units of ‰. For **FIT** data the relative energy spread is calculated as:
$`\frac{2.355*\sigma}{\mu}`$
and for directly calculated values (**SPECT**):
$`\frac{2.355*RMS}{\text{Center of mass}}`$
where the factor or 2.355 is included to allow these values to be comparable.
