Note 3: Alternatively ?(m/z) is defined as the separation between two adjacent equal magnitude peaks such that the valley between them is a specified fraction of the peak height, for example as measured by peak matching. | Note 3: Alternatively ?(m/z) is defined as the separation between two adjacent equal magnitude peaks such that the valley between them is a specified fraction of the peak height, for example as measured by peak matching. | ||
