iData_Sqw2D: deBosify: remove Bose factor (detailed balance) from an 'experimental/quantum' data set. The initial data set should be 'quantum/experimental' and satisfy the detailed balance. The resulting data set obeys S*=S(q,w) = S(q,-w), i.e. is 'classical'. It suppresses the temperature effect (population). conventions: omega = Ei-Ef = energy lost by the neutron, given in [meV] omega > 0, neutron looses energy, can not be higher than Ei (Stokes) omega < 0, neutron gains energy, anti-Stokes S(q,-w) = exp(-hw/kT) S(q,w) S(q,w) = exp( hw/kT) S(q,-w) S(q,w) = Q(w) S*(q,w) with S*=classical limit and Q(w) defined below. for omega > 0, S(q,w) > S(q,-w) The semi-classical correction, Q, aka 'quantum' correction factor, can be selected from the optional 'type' argument: Q = exp(hw_kT/2) 'Schofield' or 'Boltzmann' Q = hw_kT./(1-exp(-hw_kT)) 'harmonic' or 'Bader' Q = 2./(1+exp(-hw_kT)) 'standard' or 'Frommhold' (default) The 'Boltzmann' correction leads to a divergence of the S(q,w) for e.g. w above few 100 meV. The 'harmonic' correction provides a reasonable correction but does not fully avoid the divergence at large energies. Bose factor: n(w) = 1./(exp(w*11.605/T) -1) ~ exp(-w*11.605/T) w in [meV], T in [K] References: B. Hehr, http://www.lib.ncsu.edu/resolver/1840.16/7422 PhD manuscript (2010). S. A. Egorov, K. F.
