Facade over ReflectometryReductionOne v1.
Pulls numeric parameters out of the instrument parameters where possible. You can override any of these automatically applied defaults by providing your own value for the input.
If ProcessingInstructions is not set its value is inferred from other properties:
See ReflectometryReductionOne v1 for more information on the wrapped algorithm.
If a WorkspaceGroup is provided to ReflectometryReductionOneAuto, it will follow the steps shown in the diagram below to produce its output.
If polarization correction is enabled, it is performed as an additional step once the main processing has completed. The following diagram shows how the PolarizationCorrection v1 algorithm is used.
If no Transmission runs are provided, then polynomial correction can be performed instead. Polynomial correction is enabled by setting the CorrectionAlgorithm property.
If set to AutoDetect, it looks at the instrument parameters for the correction parameter. If it is set to polynomial, then polynomial correction is performed using the PolynomialCorrection v1 algorithm, with the polynomial string taken from the instrument’s polynomial parameter. If the correction parameter is set to exponential instead, then the ExponentialCorrection v1 algorithm is used, with C0 and C1 taken from the instrument parameters, C0 and C1.
These can be specified manually by setting the CorrectionAlgorithm, Polynomial, C0, and C1 properties accordingly.
