For this particular subset of data background was not subtracted off, since the data appears to oscillate about the x-axis. There does not seem to be a background fit because the data is symmetric, this means, we did not subtract off any background fit.  To analyze this data, values of the maximum peak value, peaks ,  and minimum dip values dips  were taken. In order to reduce error, maxima and minima were found by fitting a quadratic function to a small range of data close to the perceived maximum and minimum values. Once these values were found the measured spacings ($\Delta E$) between the maxima and minima of the Franck-Hertz curve were plotted against the minimum order (n) of the peaks and dips.
