Description¶
This algorithm finds the line position in a line detector reflectometry dataset. It integrates InputWorkspace over the \(X\) axis and fits the sum of a Gaussian and a linear background to the integral. The center of the Gaussian, a fractional workspace index to the InputWorkspace, is returned as a single valued workspace in OutputWorkspace and as a plain number in the LineCentre output property.
The integration region can be constrained by RangeLower and RangeUpper which restrict the \(X\) range. Further, the peak fitting can be controlled by StartWorkspaceIndex and EndWorkspaceIndex which limit the workspace index range.
If the peak fitting fails, the algorithm logs a warning and returns the workspace index of the integral maximum.

Example - FindReflectometryLines
LoadISISNexus('POLREF00004699.nxs', OutputWorkspace='ws', LoadMonitors='Exclude')
# 'ws' is a group workspace -> OutputWorkspace is a group as well
FindReflectometryLines('ws', OutputWorkspace='pos')
# Access individual outputs
pos1 = mtd['pos_1']
pos2 = mtd['pos_2']
print('Line position in the 1st workspace: {:.3}'.format(pos1.readY(0)[0]))
print('Line position in the 2nd workspace: {:.3}'.format(pos2.readY(0)[0]))
# With single workspaces one can use the named tuple output
out = FindReflectometryLines('ws_1')
print('Line position from the returned tuple: {:.3}'.format(out.LineCentre))
Output:
Line position in the 1st workspace: 25.7
Line position in the 2nd workspace: 25.7
Line position from the returned tuple: 25.7
