The PSD_monitor_rad Component

Position-sensitive monitor with radially averaging.

Identification

• Author: Henrich Frielinghaus
• Origin: FZ-Juelich/FRJ-2/IFF/KWS-2
• Date: Sept 2004

Description

Radial monitor that allows for radial averaging.
Comment: The intensity is given as two files:
1) a radial sum
2) a radial average (i.e. intensity per area)

Example: PSD_monitor_rad(rmax=0.2, nr=100, filename="Output.psd", filename_av="Output_av.psd")

Input parameters

Parameters in boldface are required; the others are optional.

Name	Unit	Description	Default
nr	1	Number of concentric circles	100
filename	text	Name of file in which to store the detector image	0
filename_av	text	Name of file in which to store the averaged detector image	0
rmax	m	Outer radius of detector	0.2
