Abstract
Disclosed herein are systems and methods for a mass spectrometer having a multipole configured to pass an ion stream, and a detector configured to detect the properties of the abundance of ions represented by data points. The mass spectrometer also includes a processing system that is configured to obtain a plurality of paired data points (e.g., detector data points and RF amplitude data points), and identify, based on centroiding a portion of the plurality of paired data points, at least one characteristic of a peak and determine, based on the at least one characteristic of the peak, a preferred peak shape.
