DetectorFloodWeighting v1

DetectorFloodWeighting dialog.

Summary

Generates a Detector flood weighting, or sensitivity workspace

Properties

Name	Direction	Type	Default	Description
InputWorkspace	Input	MatrixWorkspace	Mandatory	Flood weighting measurement
TransmissionWorkspace	Input	MatrixWorkspace		Flood weighting measurement
Bands	Input	dbl list		Wavelength bands to use. Single pair min to max.
OutputWorkspace	Output	MatrixWorkspace	Mandatory	Normalized flood weighting measurement
SolidAngleCorrection	Input	boolean	True	Perform final solid angle correction

Description

This algorithm is used to calculate the detector flood weighting workspace use for pixel flood corrections. It was originally developed for the ANSTO Bilby instrument.

This algorithm crops the data over the specified wavelength region, and sums it. The algorithm will then perform a solid angle correction on each spectra via SolidAngle v1 if specified, and divides through by the provided transmission workspace if provided. The result is divided by the mean spectrum value in the previous result.

Usage

Example - Simple Generation

import numpy as np
# create histogram workspace
dataX = range(0,10) # or use dataX=range(0,10)
dataY = [1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2] # or use dataY=[1]*9
ws = CreateWorkspace(dataX, dataY, NSpec=2, UnitX="Wavelength")

out_ws = DetectorFloodWeighting(InputWorkspace=ws, Bands=[0,10], SolidAngleCorrection=False)

print('Number Histograms {}'.format(out_ws.getNumberHistograms()))
print('Min X: {} Max X: {}'.format(out_ws.readX(0)[0], out_ws.readX(0)[1]))

Output:

Number Histograms 2
Min X: 0.0 Max X: 10.0

Example - With Solid Angle Correction

ws = CreateSimulationWorkspace(Instrument='LOQ', BinParams=[1,1,10], UnitX="Wavelength")
out_ws = DetectorFloodWeighting(InputWorkspace=ws, Bands=[0,10], SolidAngleCorrection=True)

print('Number Histograms {}'.format(out_ws.getNumberHistograms()))
print('Number of Bins {}'.format(out_ws.blocksize()))
print('X units {}'.format(out_ws.getAxis(0).getUnit().unitID()))

Output:

Number Histograms 17776
Number of Bins 1
X units Wavelength
