StoG

This module defines the StoG class that tries to replicate the previous stog program behavior in an organized fashion with the ability to re-construct the workflow.

class pystog.stog.StoG(**kwargs)[source]

The StoG class is used to put together the Converter, Transformer, and FourierFilter class functionalities to reproduce the original stog Fortran program behavior. This class is meant to put together the functionality of the classes into higher-level calls to construct workflows for merging and processing multiple recprical space functions into a final output real space function.

This pythonized-version of the original Fortran stog uses pandas and numpy for data storage, organization, and manipulation and matplotlib for diagonostic visualization “under the hood”.

Examples:
>>> import json
>>> from pystog import StoG
>>> with open("../data/examples/argon_pystog.json", 'r') as f:
>>>     kwargs = json.load(f)
>>> stog = StoG(**kwargs)
>>> stog.read_all_data()
>>> stog.merge_data()
>>> stog.write_out_merged_data()

bcoh_sqrd

The average coherent scattering length, squared: \langle b_{coh} \rangle^2 = ( \sum_{i} c_{i} b_{coh,i} ) ( \sum_{i} c_{i} b^*_{coh,i} ) where the subscript i implies for atom type i, c_{i} is the concentration of i, b_{coh,i} is the coherent scattering length of i, and b^*_{coh,i} is the complex coherent scattering length of i

The real part of the b_{coh,i} term can be found from the Coh b column of the NIST neutron scattering length and cross section table found here: https://www.ncnr.nist.gov/resources/n-lengths/list.html

Units are in fm in the table for the b_{coh,i} term. Thus, \langle b_{coh} \rangle^2 has units of fm^2 (and what PyStoG expects). NOTE: 100 fm^2 == 1 barn.

Getter:Return the value of \langle b_{coh} \rangle^2
Setter:Set the value for \langle b_{coh} \rangle^2
Type:float
btot_sqrd

The average coherent scattering length, squared: \langle b_{tot}^2 \rangle = \sum_{i} c_{i} b_{tot,i}^2 = \frac{1}{4 \pi} \sum_i c_{i} \sigma_{tot,i} where the subscript i implies for atom type i, c_{i} is the concentration of i and \sigma_{tot,i} is the total cross-section of i

The real part of the b_{coh,i} term can be found from the Scatt xs column of the NIST neutron scattering length and cross section table found here: https://www.ncnr.nist.gov/resources/n-lengths/list.html

Units are in barn (=100 fm^2) in the table for the \sigma_{tot,i} term. Thus, you must multiply \sum_{i} c_{i} b_{tot,i}^2 by 100 to go from barn to fm^2 (what PyStoG expects).
