  • Abstract
    One method of solving inverse problems in the presence of random variations (noise) emphasizes the importance of prior knowledge and uses Thomas Bayes´s theorem from statistics. We describe a data analysis problem from experimental nuclear physics, requiring analysis of the energy spectrum from a nuclear reaction. We show how to use Bayesian methods to analyze nuclear reaction spectra
