class mantid.api.IMDWorkspace¶

__init__()¶

Raises an exception This class cannot be instantiated from Python

clone(*InputWorkspace, **Version=1)¶

Copies an existing workspace into a new one.

Property descriptions:

InputWorkspace(Input:req) Workspace Name of the input workspace. Must be a MatrixWorkspace (2D or EventWorkspace), a PeaksWorkspace or a MDEventWorkspace.

OutputWorkspace(Output:req) Workspace Name of the newly created cloned workspace.

convertUnits(*InputWorkspace, Target, EMode=None, EFixed=None, AlignBins=None, **Version=1)¶

Performs a unit change on the X values of a workspace

Property descriptions:

InputWorkspace(Input:req) MatrixWorkspace Name of the input workspace

OutputWorkspace(Output:req) MatrixWorkspace Name of the output workspace, can be the same as the input

Target(Input:req) string The name of the units to convert to (must be one of those registered in the Unit Factory)[Degrees, DeltaE, DeltaE_inWavenumber, dSpacing, Empty, Energy, Energy_inWavenumber, Label, Momentum, MomentumTransfer, QSquared, SpinEchoLength, SpinEchoTime, Time, TOF, Wavelength]

EMode(Input) string The energy mode (default: elastic)[Elastic, Direct, Indirect]
