ORANGE BOOK DEFINITION
Intensity (relative to base peak)

he ratio of intensity of a separated ion beam to the intensity of the separated ion beam that has the greatest intensity. This ratio is generally equated to the normalized ratio of the heights of the respective peaks in the mass spectrum, with the height of the base peak taken as 100.

IUPAC Orange Book Chapter 12


GOLD BOOK DEFINITION
Intensity (relative to base peak)

http://goldbook.iupac.org/I03073.html

The ratio of intensity of a separated ion beam to the intensity of the separated ion beam which has the greatest intensity. This ratio is generally equated to the normalized ratio of the heights of the respective peaks in the mass spectrum, with the height of the base peak being taken as 100.
