This algorithm performs a Fast Fourier Transform on each spectrum in a workspace, and from the result takes the indicated spectrum and places it into the OutputWorkspace, so that you end up with one result spectrum for each input spectrum in the same workspace.
| Name | Direction | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| InputWorkspace | Input | MatrixWorkspace | Mandatory | The input workspace. |
| InputImagWorkspace | Input | MatrixWorkspace | The optional input workspace for the imaginary part. | |
| FFTPart | Input | number | 2 | Spectrum number, one of the six possible spectra output by the FFT algorithm |
| OutputWorkspace | Output | MatrixWorkspace | Mandatory | The output workspace. |
This algorithm iterates the FFT v1 algorithm on each spectrum of InputWorkspace, computing the Fourier Transform and storing the transformed spectrum in OutputWorkspace. If InputImagWorkspace is also passed, then the pair spectrum i of InputWorkspace (real) and spectrum i of InputImagWorkspace (real) are taken together as spectrum i of a complex workspace, on which FFT v1 is applied.
The FFTPart parameter specifies which transform is selected from the output of the FFT v1 algorithm:
For the case of input containing real and imaginary workspaces:
| FFTPart | Description |
|---|---|
| 0 | Complete real part |
| 1 | Complete imaginary part |
| 2 | Complete transform modulus |
For the case of input containing no imaginary workspace:
| FFTPart | Description |
|---|---|
| 0 | Real part, positive frequencies |
| 1 | Imaginary part, positive frequencies |
| 2 | Modulus, positive frequencies |
| 3 | Complete real part |
| 4 | Complete imaginary part |
| 5 | Complete transform modulus |

print("Theoretical Sigma = 1/(2*pi*sigma)=3.183 -- Fitted Sigma value is: %.3f" % paramTable.column(1)[2])
Output:
Theoretical FWHM = 1/(pi*tau)=6.367 -- Fitted FWHM value is: 6.367
Theoretical Sigma = 1/(2*pi*sigma)=3.183 -- Fitted Sigma value is: 3.183
