File Applications/SpinW/m_files/sw_instrument.m includes instrumental factors into the calculated spectrum spectra = SW_INSTRUMENT(spectra, 'option1','value1',...) It includes instrumental factors (resolution, energy transfer range, etc.) to the convoluted spectrum. Options: dE Defines the energy resolution of the instrument. It can be a string, single number, vector of function hangle: String File name, that contains the FWHM energy resolution values as a function of energy transfer. The file has to contain two columns, first is the energy values, the second is the FWHM resolution at the given energy transfer value, see sw_res() function for details. Number Constant FWHM energy resolution as a function of energy transfer. Matrix Dimensions of Nx2, first column contains the energy transfer values, second column contains the FWHM resolution values. These values will be fitted using a polynomial with a fixed degree, see sw_res() function for details. Function Function handle of a resolution function with the following header: E_FWHM = res_fun(E) where E_FWHM is the FWHM energy resolution and E is the energy transfer value. polDeg Degree of the fitted polynomial to the instrumental resolution data. Default is 5. dQ Momentum transfer resolution of the instrument, FWHM is given in A-1 units, default is 0. ThetaMin Minimum scattering angle in degree, default is 0. plot If the resolution is read from file and plot option is true, tre resolution will be plotted, default is true. Fixed incident neutron energy: ki Momentum of the incident neutrons in A^-1 units. Ei Energy of the incident neutrons in meV. Fixed final neutron energy: kf Final momentum of the neutrons in A^-1 units. Ef Final neutron energy in meV. norm If true, the data is normalized to mbarn units. Default is true. If no g-tensor is included in the spin wave calculation, g-tensor = 2 is assumed here. useRaw If false, the already modified spectra.swConv field is modified further instead of the original powder spectrum stored in spectra.swRaw. Default is true. Output: spectra Struct variable, same as input with following additional fields: norm True, if the spectrum is normalised to mbarn units. ki Incident neutron wave vector as given in the input. dE Energy resolution polynomial as given in the input. dQ FWHM of the momentum resolution. swRaw Original simulated data, withouth the application of the instrumental factors.
