peak intensity vs number of scans

Hi,
I have a question regarding how the peak intensities change when with increase in number of scans when the data is collected on a Varian NMR spectrometer. Suppose I collect a 15N-1H HSQC spectra with 8 scans and then collect the same spectra with 16 scans, would the peak intensities be double in the 16 scan spectra as compared to the 8 scan spectra? Does anyone know how the varian spectrometer scales the intensities according to the number of scans? Any suggestion or reply to my query will be extremely useful and greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Peak height versus peak volume Given a standard NOESY-based protein structure determination: Does anyone have any information on the benefits of measuring peak intensity by a volume integration method rather than simply measuring the peak height. Obviously integration is theoretically more accurate, but does it make any difference to the quality of the structures produced? especially if peak lineshapes are comparable? I was hoping to find some study comparing structures produced by both methods..... I'm also curious about the benefits of distance-calbrating NOEs to a curve rather than simply putting restraints...	paul	NMR Questions and Answers	3	09-15-2015 07:48 PM

[U. of Ottawa NMR Facility Blog] Dummy Scans Dummy Scans Dummy scans (DS, Bruker) or steady state scans (SS, Varian) are scans taken in an NMR acquisition before the receiver is turned on and data are collected. Each dummy scan contains all of the rf pulses, delays and gradients used in the pulse program; the only difference is that the receiver is not turned on to collect data. Dummy scans are typically used to ensure that a spin system is in a steady state before data are collected. For example, One may collect a spectrum using a relaxation delay short with respect to the T1's of some of the resonances in the spectrum. The first...	nmrlearner	News from NMR blogs	0	08-21-2010 08:15 PM
