Description

The workflow proceeds as follows:

  1. Using the algorithm LiquidsReflectometryReduction, reduce the normalization run for a standard using normalization input parameters: \(I^{standard}(Q)\)

  2. With the input Refl1DModelParameters JSON string, calculate the model reflectivity for the normalization run to produce the theoretical reflectivity of the standard. Uses the refl1d [1] package: \(R_{theory}^{standard}(Q)\)

  3. The reduced normalization run from step (1), \(I^{standard}(Q)\), is then divided by the model reflectivity of the same material from step (2), \(R_{theory}^{standard}(Q)\), to produce the incident flux for normalzing the sample run: \(I_{norm}(Q) = I^{standard}(Q) / R_{theory}^{standard}(Q)\).

  4. Using the algorithm LiquidsReflectometryReduction, reduce the sample run with the normalization turned OFF (i.e. NormFlag set to False): \(I^{sample}(Q)\)

  5. Calculate the sample reflectivity by dividing the sample reduction of step (4), \(I^{sample}(Q)\), by the normalization in step (3), thus \(R^{sample}(Q) = I^{sample}(Q) / I_{norm}(Q)\).
