6.13.2 Lorentzian and Gaussian Fits

Gaussian and Lorentzian fits are very similar, they both require amplitude, center, and FWHM to be fully specified. All of the following discussion is thus valid for both functions. The parameter pfunc controls whether Gaussian or Lorentizan functions are to be used. Default is all Gaussians. pfunc=["L", "G", "G", "L"] would would use Lorentzian, Gaussian, Gaussian, and Lorentzian components in the order they appear in the estimates file (see below).
