Petr,
You could use nonlinear regression to fit two Guassian peaks. For example,
fit <- nls(sig ~ d + a1*exp(-0.5*((time-c1)/b1)^2) +
a2*exp(-0.5*((time-c2)/b2)^2),
start=list(a1=15, b1=20, c1=315, a2=4, b2=50, c2=465, d=1.5), data=temp)
plot(temp, type="l")
lines(temp$time, predict(fit), lty=2, col="red")
