a X and Y peaks
The specimen showed a larger gamma and beta peaks on the second measurment.

Would you say this sentence is grammatical? I would have expected to see "showed larger gamma and beta peaks" (assuming there are one gamma peak and one beta peak)

Thank you.

Answer

Looks like a mistake to me because it would not be logical to have "a" followed by a plural noun "peaks". But I am not a medical person so maybe it's a word I don't know.
