class hyperspy._components.gaussian2d.Gaussian2D(A=1.0, sigma_x=1.0, sigma_y=1.0, centre_x=0.0, centre_y=0, module='numexpr', **kwargs)

Bases: Expression

Normalized 2D elliptical Gaussian function component.

$$f(x,y)=\frac{A}{2\pi s_x{s}_y}\exp [-\frac{{(x-x_0)}^2}{2s_x^2}\frac{{(y-y_0)}^2}{2s_y^2}]$$

Variable	Parameter
$A$	A
$s_x,s_y$	sigma_x/y
$x_0,y_0$	centre_x/y

Parameters:

• A (float) – Volume (height of the peak scaled by $2\pi s_x{s}_y$) – eqivalent to the area in a 1D Gaussian.

• sigma_x (float) – Width (scale parameter) of the Gaussian distribution in x direction.

• sigma_y (float) – Width (scale parameter) of the Gaussian distribution in y direction.

• centre_x (float) – Location of the Gaussian maximum (peak position) in x direction.

• centre_x – Location of the Gaussian maximum (peak position) in y direction.

• add_rotation (bool) – If True, add the parameter rotation_angle corresponding to the angle between the x and the horizontal axis.

• **kwargs – Extra keyword arguments are passed to the Expression component.
