to draw a histogram for Peak ADC channel 4
PAA->Draw("PADC.PADC785N[4]>>(4096,0,4096)")
To scale the histogram using an energy calibration of 0.45 keV/channel
PAA->Draw("PADC.PADC785N[4]*0.45>>(4096,0,4096)")
To save thehistogram under the name Cs137
PAA->Draw("PADC.PADC785N[4]*0.45>>Cs137(4096,0,4096)")
To normalize the histogram by a run time of 2600 seconds
1/3600=0.0002778
Cs137->Scale(0.0002778) Cs137->Draw();
run 6816 background (~300Hz) 1/47 = 0.021277
run 6817 signal (~600 Hz) 1/75 =0.013333
