McXtrace: SAXSShells

[ Identification | Description | Input parameters | Links ]

The SAXSShells Component

Release: McXtrace 1.0 A sample of monodisperse shell-like particles in solution.

Identification

  • Author: Martin Cramer Pedersen (mcpe@nbi.dk)
  • Origin: KU-Science
  • Date: May 11, 2012

Description

A simple component simulating the scattering from a box-shaped, thin solution
of monodisperse, shell-like particles.

Example: Sample1 = SAXSShells( xwidth = 0.01, yheight = 0.01, zdepth = 0.01, SampleToDetectorDistance = 0.5, DetectorRadius = 0.1, R = 50.0, Thickness = 20.0 )

Input parameters

Parameters in boldface are required; the others are optional.
