NAME

MX-Calibrate - calibrate the distance of a detector from a set of powder diffraction patterns

DESCRIPTION

usage: MX-Calibrate -w 1.54 -c CeO2 file1.cbf file2.cbf ...
Calibrate automatically a set of frames taken at various sample-detector distance. Return the linear regression of the fit in funtion of the samplesetector distance.

positional arguments:

FILE
List of files to calibrate

options:

-h, --help
show this help message and exit
-V, --version
show program's version number and exit
-v, --verbose
switch to debug/verbose mode
-c FILE, --calibrant FILE
file containing d-spacing of the calibrant reference sample (MANDATORY)
-w WAVELENGTH, --wavelength WAVELENGTH
wavelength of the X-Ray beam in Angstrom
-e ENERGY, --energy ENERGY
energy of the X-Ray beam in keV (hc=12.398419843320026keV.A)
-P POLARIZATION_FACTOR, --polarization POLARIZATION_FACTOR
polarization factor, from -1 (vertical) to +1 (horizontal), default is 0, synchrotrons are around 0.95
-b BACKGROUND, --background BACKGROUND
Automatic background subtraction if no value are provided
-d DARK, --dark DARK
list of dark images to average and subtract
-f FLAT, --flat FLAT
list of flat images to average and divide
-s SPLINE, --spline SPLINE
spline file describing the detector distortion

Deactivated tilt refinement and set all rotation to 0
--dist DIST
sample-detector distance in meter

fix the distance parameter
--free-dist
free the distance parameter
--fix-poni1
fix the poni1 parameter
--free-poni1

--fix-poni2
fix the poni2 parameter
--free-poni2

--no-gui
force the program to run without a Graphical interface
--gui
force the program to run with a Graphical interface
--no-interactive
force the program to run and exit without prompting for refinements
--interactive
force the program to prompt for refinements
--peak-picker PEAKPICKER
Uses the 'massif', 'blob' or 'watershed' peak-picker algorithm (default: blob)
This tool has been developed for ESRF MX-beamlines where an acceptable calibration is usually present is the header of the image. PyFAI reads it and does a "recalib" on each of them before exporting a linear regression of all parameters versus this distance.
