Hall-Ross

Description

Models the Q dependence of the QENS line width (Gamma (hwhm)), diffusion coefficients (D), residence times (tau) and jump lengths (l) to extract the associated long range diffusive motions of molecules.

The Hall-Ross Jump diffusion model [1] has the form:

Gamma(Q)=τ(1exp(l2Q22))

Units of l are inverse units of Q.

Units of Gamma are meV if units of τ are ps. Alternatively, units of Gamma are \mu`eV if units of :math:tau` are ns.

Mean square diffusion jump length = 3 l^2 \ \AA^2.

Diffusion coefficient D = \frac{l^2}{2 \tau} \ \AA^2 ps^{-1}.

Properties (fitting parameters)

Name Default Description
Tau 1.0 Residence time
L 0.2 Standard deviation of jump lengths
