Input files have <CR><LF> \r\n <ctrl-M><ctrl-J> line terminators and those are
carried thru at the ends of the string fields:
$ gawk -f peak_intensity_correln_plot_compile.awk
$ file *cPuMP*.dat
2NH2-cPuMP_nh_-_pk_Fit_Height_data.dat: ASCII text, with CRLF line
terminators
cPuMP_nh_-_pk_Fit_Height_data.dat: ASCII text, with CRLF line
terminators
Fit_Height_correln_plot_-_cPuMP_vs_2NH2-cPuMP.dat: ASCII text, with CR, LF line
terminators

You could change your input line terminators to "\r\n" e.g. option -vRS="\r\n",
insert '{ sub( /\r$/, ""); before each 'split(x, s, " ")', convert your input
fields from strings to numbers by adding zero i.e. cai[i] += 0; rpi[i] += 0; or
use belts, braces, and suspenders with all three, e.g.
$ gawk -vRS="\r\n" -f peak_intensity_correln_plot_compile.awk
$ file *cPuMP*.dat
2NH2-cPuMP_nh_-_pk_Fit_Height_data.dat: ASCII text, with CRLF line
terminators
cPuMP_nh_-_pk_Fit_Height_data.dat: ASCII text, with CRLF line
terminators
Fit_Height_correln_plot_-_cPuMP_vs_2NH2-cPuMP.dat: ASCII text
$ cat -A Fit_Height_correln_plot_-_cPuMP_vs_2NH2-cPuMP.dat | head
1571697 1716833 224$
