Abstract

The ubiquitous spectroscopic problem of decomposing overlapping lines is solved for ion scattering spectroscopy (ISS) employing maximum entropy. The present example of Pd adsorption on a Ru surface is particularly challenging because 13 overlapping isotopes contribute to the total scattering signal. Proper decomposition using appropriate prior information enables accurate coverage determination.
