SANS#

Note

These release notes were migrated from the retired Mantid wiki (archive.mantidproject.org).

We have created a wiki page to show users when they first have to use Mantid to process SANS data SANS_Data_Analysis_at_ISIS, we hope this will help you presenting them the Mantid Tool.

New Features#

High Angle Bank#

For this release, we have given some attention to the High Angle detector, to process with some functionalities that were able only to the Small Angle detector.

SANSFloodCorrectionFront

  • Flood correction file for Front detector available also through MON/FLAT.

  • Introduction of SANS Wide Angle Correction available through SAMPLE/PATH/ON

  • Q1D extended to accept Wave and Pixel dependent parameter. The new equation is (if WavePixelAdj) is given (see SANSWideAngleCorrection)

\(P_I(Q) = \frac{\sum_{\{i, j, n\} \supset \{I\}} S(i,j,n)}{\sum_{\{i, j, n\} \supset \{I\}}M(n)\eta(n)T(n)\Omega_{i j}F_{i j}Corr(i,j,n)}\)

CanSAS - v1.1#

  • CanSAS now add <SASdetector> field.

  • New version of CanSAS format (v1.1) that is able to Save/Load transmission data (picture)

CanSASFormat

Important Fixes#

SANSBeamCentreFinderFront

  • Correct Find Beam Centre to work properly for both detectors

  • Process the CORR/DET option to apply the detector offset.

  • Correction of error propagation at Q1D algorithm from:

to

  • Process the option DET/RESCALE/FIT to enable fit for HAB detector.

  • Save the spectrum number for RKH format

  • Applies the suffix “_front”, ”_rear” or ”_merged” onto output workspaces in BatchMode

  • Show Rectangular banks for SANS2D Event data
