Abstract

In a process for determining the number of components involved in the formation of peaks, bands, and signals which are obtained in spectrograms where energy-correlated measurement values, such as extinctions, increase and decrease as a function of an evolving parameter, such as time, four different measurement values with at least three evolving parameter values are determined, three differences are formed from the four energy-correlated measurement values on the basis of the same evolving parameter, two quotients are formed from the respective differences and the two quotients are plotted over one another in a diagram, whereby a point is obtained if one component is responsible, a straight line is formed if two components are responsible and a curve is formed if more than two components are responsible for the formation of the peaks, bands, or signals.
