Introduction

TV is a spectra- and matrix-analysis program which runs under the operating system UNIX and has been successfully tested under SUNOS 5.5.1, Ultrix 4.3A, HP-UX 9.01 and Linux. This manual documents the use and simple customization of the program. Its intention is to teach the beginner all basic functions of the program and as a reference manual for the advanced user. This documentation describes the program as it and not the physical background. Only now and then fundamental vocabulary from the analyzing of nuclear physics data is explained and a little theory of the form of spectra is given.

This manual is available both as postscript file and as hypertext. The URL of the hypertext-form is:

You can get a postscript version of the manual from this site, too.
