Summary
Performs a unit change from TOF to dSpacing, correcting the X values to account for small errors in the detector positions.
Properties
| Order | Name | Direction | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | InputWorkspace | Input | Workspace | Mandatory | The name of the input workspace. |
| 2 | OutputWorkspace | Output | Workspace | Mandatory | The name to use for the output workspace. |
| 3 | CalibrationFile | Input | string | Mandatory | The CalFile containing the position correction factors |
Description
The detector offset files used by this algorithm are in the form created by the ARIEL software. The offsets are a correction to the dSpacing values and are applied during the conversion from time-of-flight to dSpacing as follows:
Note: the workspace that this algorithms outputs is a ragged workspace.
Restrictions on the input workspace
The input workspace must contain histogram data where the X unit is time-of-flight and the Y data is raw counts. The instrument associated with the workspace must be fully defined because detector, source & sample position are needed.
