Description
A gamma function is a different kind of function than we have fit with the curve fitter before. A gamma function generally looks a bit like a lopsided bell curve, where the centre of the bell is rho0. Because it's a new kind of curve, there's a couple of issues you'll have to figure out how to solve.
1. Just like other kind of polynomials, order will have to be defined somehow.
2. 2 different fits are used. LP to the left of rho0, HP to the right. So the user may have to pass in a value for rho0. (Or maybe you could just take the highest point as rho0?)
3. LP uses - exponenets, HP positive ones.
You may have to call and discuss this one with Christine.
