The Thomson scattering diagnostic offers a method by which to infer plasma parameters such as n_e, T_e. This approach uses the form factor equations to estimate those plasma parameters by fitting to observed Thomson scattering spectra.
Some data has hot pixels or extraneous features that should be ignored in fitting. Currently the only way to exclude these points is with the fit ranges but that does not always work, a better way to remove hotspots is needed.
