integrated peak intensity

Tianlee1995

hello,

I tried to perform single peak fitting on individual peaks.

I am always curious about the meaning of the I showing in the refinement results. Is that integrated intensity for the whole peak area or something else?

Have a look in the tech ref, equation 5-1 for version 7. "I" would be the integrated intensity in the simplest case, but it can be multiplied by various scale factors depending on how you have your INP file set up. The peak shape is created by convolution, but they are normalised so (in the main) don't change the peak area.
