To find the error in the background, the expanded window's background was subtracted from the original window's background. The signal was found by integrating the gaussian over the original window with an adjusted amplitude, which has been background subtracted and fed into mathematica.

Since the Selenium activities are not matching predicted values, check nickel foils from the front and rear to try and get that the activity is the same. Below is a table of pictures and information from ROOT sessions. For each of these, the spectrum was weighted by the inverse of the mass. For the front foil the mass was 1.3310g and for the rear foil the mass was 1.2196g.

To find the error in the background, the expanded window's background was subtracted from the original window's background. The signal was found by integrating the gaussian over the original window with an adjusted amplitude, which has been background subtracted and fed into mathematica.
