!!! [Special Population Routines]

!!Preparing the [IXTdata_source] All the population routines descirbed here use the [IXTdata_source] object. The [IXTdata_source] object is used to define source files for the population of an [IXTrunfile] object. Different source files can be added to the [IXTdata_source] object with their own special commands:

  • rawfiles: [addrawfile]
  • monitor map files: [addmonmap]
  • monitor mask files: [addmonmask]
  • detector map files: [adddetmap]
  • detector mask files: [adddetmask]

It is necessary to define the type of instrument you are using in the [IXTdata_source] object, of course only one instrument can be defined for population to work as you would expect. This affects how the IXTrunfile is populated, and the current options are as follows

  • chopper instruments: [addchopinst]
  • diffraction instruments: [adddiffinst]

!! Alternative [IXTmap], [IXTmask] population

The commands above are for specifying files, it is also possible to populate [IXTmap] and [IXTmask] objects in the matlab environment from the command line.

[IXTmask]

>> mask_array = ~[1,3,5,6,7,8,9]
>> mask = IXTmask(mask_array)

or

>> mask = IXTmask(~[1,3,5,6,7,8,9])
  • this is a special [IXTmask] constructor
  • mask is an [IXTmask] object
  • mask_array is an array of spectra to be masked
  • a mask object can be created by DIAG which is one of the [Diagnostic tools for homer]

[IXTmap]

>> spectrum_arrays = {~[1,3,5,6],~[7,8,9,10],~[11,12,13,14]}
>> workspace_numbers = ~[1,22,333]
>> map=IXTmap(spectrum_arrays)

or

>> map=IXTmap(~[1,22,333],{~[1,3,5,6],~[7,8,9,10],~[11,12,13,14]})
  • this is a special [IXTmap] constructor
  • spectrum_arrays is a cell array containing numerical lists of spectra to be grouped together into workspaces
  • the array workspace_numbers is optional, and if not provided workspace numbers will be given values 1->N where N = size(spectrum_arrays,2)

!! Populating [IXTrunfile] There are three standard ways to populate an [IXTrunfile] object, all require an [IXTdata_source] object which has had the type of instrument defined in it ie. chopper or diffraction instrument. As well as simply loading data from a raw file the data can generally be optionally masked/mapped/rebinned using an argument to the population function as a keyword with an associated parameter (eg. a map/mask file, rebin parameters etc.)

If a map/mask/raw file is provided as a command line argument, then it will override any specification already defined in the [IXTdata_source] object.

If no map files are defined, either on the command line or in the [IXTdata_source] object then a 1:1 mapping with _all_ spectra will be created by default. If no mask files are defined then all spectra will be included in the workspaces.

The standard construction for these population routines is as follows.

>> RF=pop_fun(DSO, inst_abv, run_no, 'keyword_1', parameter_1,..., 'keyword_N',parameter_N)
  • RF is an [IXTrunfile] object
  • DSO is an [IXTdata_source] object which contains an instrument type definition
  • pop_fun can be either _mon,spec,pop_full,homer_
  • raw file specification does not use a keyword, it is built up from the standard instrument abbreviation (eg. HRP, MAR, SRF etc.) and the run number
  • keywords are _always_ character strings and each keyword must be followed by a parameter
  • values can take any appropriate type
  • map files have a designated [Map File Format]
  • mask files have a designated [Mask File Format]

!! mon This function populates an [IXTrunfile] object with the raw time-of-flight data for the monitors in the runfile.mon_data [IXTdata] object only. It will optionally accept the keywords in the following table:

<?plugin OldStyleTable caption="Keyword arguments for mon" border||=2 |< *Keyword* |^ *Parameter Type* |^ *Brief Description* |< 'period' |^ numeric |< specifies period default:1, if = 0 then spectra can be defined from more than one period |< 'mon_map'|^ 'string' |< specifies a map file, supplied parameter is defines the location of the monitor map file |< 'mon_mask'|^ 'string' |< specifies a mask file, supplied parameter is defines the location of the monitor mask file |< 'm_rebin'|^ ~[xlo,dx,xhi] or ~[x_1,dx_1,x_2,dx_2,...,x_n,dx_n,x_n+1] |< rebin parameters are defined according to the *numerical* array inputs of [rebin_x],[rebin] for single datasets ?>

An example sequence of commands is shown below.

>> inst='HET'
>> run_no= '12345' % run number
>> monitor_mask_file = 'X:\MASKFILES\MON.MASK'
>> monitor_map_file = 'X:\MAPFILES\MON.MAP'
>> rebin_parameters = ~[1000,100,20000]
>> runfile = mon(dso,inst,run_no,'mon_map',monitor_map_file,'mon_mask',monitor_mask_file,'m_rebin',rebin_parameters)

!! spec This function populates an [IXTrunfile] object with the raw time-of-flight data for the detectors in the runfile.det_data [IXTdata] object only. It will optionally accept the keywords in the following table:

<?plugin OldStyleTable caption="Keyword arguments for spec" border||=2 |< *Keyword* |^ *Parameter Type* |^ *Brief Description* |< 'period' |^ numeric |< specifies period default:1, if = 0 then spectra can be defined from more than one period |< 'det_map'|^ 'string' |< specifies a map file, supplied parameter is defines the location of the detector map file |< 'det_mask'|^ 'string' |< specifies a mask file, supplied parameter is defines the location of the detector mask file |< 'd_rebin'|^ ~[xlo,dx,xhi] or ~[x_1,dx_1,x_2,dx_2,...,x_n,dx_n,x_n+1] |< specifies rebinning of data, rebin parameters are defined according to the *numerical* array inputs of [rebin_x],[rebin] for single datasets |< 'd_int'|^ ~[xlo,xhi] |< specifies limits for integration of the dataset between two limits, 'd_int' *cannot* be supplied with 'd_rebin' |< 'background'|^ ~[xlo,xhi] |< specifies a background subtraction, the supplied parameter is a numerical array defining the background integration range in time-of-flight ?>

An example sequence of commands is shown below.

>> inst='MAP'
>> run_no= '54321' % run number
>> detector_mask_file = 'X:\MASKFILES\DET.MASK'
>> detector_map_file = 'X:\MAPFILES\DET.MAP'
>> rebin_parameters = ~[1000,100,20000]
>> bgrd = ~[12000,18000]
>> runfile = spec(dso,inst,run_no,'det_map',detector_map_file,'det_mask',detector_mask_file,'d_rebin',rebin_parameters)

!! pop_full
