Description

The algorithm transforms a single spectrum workspace containing spectral density \(S(Q)\), \(S(Q)-1\), or \(Q[S(Q)-1]\) (as a function of MomentumTransfer or dSpacing units) to a PDF (pair distribution function) as described below and also the reverse. The available PDF types are the reduced pair distribution function \(G(r)\), the pair distribution function \(g(r)\), the radial distribution function \(RDF(r)\), and the total radial distribution function \(G_k(r)\).

The output from this algorithm will have an x-range between 0.0 and the maximum parameter of the output, i.e. if converting from g(r) to S(Q) the output will be between 0.0 and Qmax.

The spectrum density should be in the Q-space (MomentumTransfer) units . (d-spacing is not supported any more. Contact development team to fix that and enable dSpacing again)

PDF Options

g(r)

\(g(r) = \rho(r)/\rho_0 = 1+\frac{1}{2\pi^2\rho_0r} \int_{0}^{\infty} Q[S(Q)-1]\sin(Qr)dQ\)

and in this algorithm, it is implemented as

\(g(r)-1 = \frac{1}{2\pi \rho_0 r^3} \sum_{Q_{min}}^{Q_{max}} M(Q,Q_{max})(S(Q)-1)[\sin(Qr) - Qr\cos(Qr)]^{right bin}_{left bin}\)

where \(M(Q,Q_{max})\) is an optional filter function. If Filter property is set (true) then

\(M(Q,Q_{max}) = \frac{\sin(\pi Q/Q_{max})}{\pi Q/Q_{max}}\)

otherwise

\(M(Q,Q_{max}) = 1\,\)

G(r)

\(G(r) = 4 \pi \rho_0 r [g(r)-1]\)

RDF(r)

\(RDF(r) = 4 \pi \rho_0 r^2 g(r)\)

G_k(r)

\(G_k(r) = \frac{0.01 * \langle b_{coh} \rangle ^2 G^{PDF}(r)}{(4 \pi)^2 \rho_0 r} = 0.01 * \langle b_{coh} \rangle ^2 [g(r)-1]\)

Note: All output forms are calculated by transforming \(g(r)-1\).

Usage

Example - PDF transformation examples:

# Simulates Load of a workspace with all necessary parameters
import numpy as np;
xx = np.array(range(0,100))*0.1
yy = np.exp(-(2.0 * xx)**2)
yy = np.delete(yy,-1) # need one less Y value than X value for histogram data
ws = CreateWorkspace(DataX=xx, DataY=yy, UnitX='MomentumTransfer')
Rt = PDFFourierTransform(ws, SofQType='S(Q)-1', PDFType='g(r)')

# Look at sample results:
print('part of S(Q)-1 and its correlation function')
for i in range(10):
   print('! {0:4.2f} ! {1:5f} ! {2:f} ! {3:5f} !'.format(xx[i], yy[i], Rt.readX(0)[i], Rt.readY(0)[i]))

Output:
