D17 is the first ILL dedicated reflectometer and it has been designed to be as flexible as possible in resolution and modes of operation. The instrument is suitable for the analysis of surface structures in solids and solid/liquid interfaces. Horizontal surface experiments, such as free liquids, will suffer from a severe restriction in Q-range and flux and are thus not recommended for this instrument.

d17_he3calibratefunction d17_he3calibrate,calfiles,main=main,water=water,mask=maskstring,F1=FF1,F2=FF2 LAMP function to create a workspace with the values of phi,F1,F2 and transmission as a function of time.
It then estimates the mean F1 and F2 (which are time-independent) It then recalculates phi (the only time-dependent quantity) The output has 7 rows: Row 1 = phi, calculated for each He3 calibration Row 2 = F1, calculated for each He3 calibration Row 3 = F2, calculated for each He3 calibration Row 4 = transmission, calculated for each He3 calibration Row 5 = phi calculated from the mean value of F1 below OR, using the optional F1 and/or F2 if specified Row 6 = the mean F1 for all the He3 calibration files Row 7 = the mean F2 for all the He3 calibration files The errors have also been estimated assuming Poissonian statistics NECESSARY VARIABLES: calfiles=a string with ALL the 3He calibration runs included The first and last file for each calibration scan must be separated by a colon (:) Separate calibration scans must be separated by a comma (,) OPTIONAL VARIABLES: main=a string with the numbers for a measurement of the main beam, with an empty cell water=the number of the workspace with the (masked) water file in it. The data will be divided by this workspace if it exists maskstring=your choice of masking the detector, written as a string. See maskme for more information on syntax. The default is no mask FF1 = a two element array with the first flipper efficiency and its error Specify this if you want to force F1 to a value FF2 = a two element array with the second flipper efficiency and its error Specify this if you want to force F2 to a value
e.g. w1=d17_he3calibrate('97087:97093,97339:97345,97591:97597',main='90201',water=1,mask='box,[190,200,63,222]') |
