Multipeak Fitting Baseline Function - LogPoly5

sabrina.thomae
Hi,
I performed a fit on my data with the Multipeak Fitting package. My background was best described with the LogPoly5 baseline function - somwehow I cannot find the exact function anywhere. In the help section it says it is a polynomial in log(X) - what exactly does this mean? Is the function something like this:
F(x) = A*log(x^5) +B *log(x^4)+ C*log(x^3)...?
Thanks,
Sabrina
Digging into PeakFunctions2.ipf file, it looks like the ith term is something like
coef[i] * ( ( 2 * log(x) - log(x1*x2) )/log(x2/x1) )^i
where x1 and x2 are start and end values
