Hi Ilya, I apologize in advance if this sounds stupid.. could you please explain me why it is obvious that your data needs to be rebinned? thank you Luca 2018-06-27 12:09 GMT+02:00 Ilya Sinev : > Hi all, > > > > I have a question regarding the chi(k) function isolation and rebinning > processes.

[Ifeffit] data after rebinning look worse in k-space than before?

2018-06-28 Thread Karl-Michael Schindler
Hi When it comes to rebinning and/or averaging, my preferred way is to use smoothing spline interpolation as implemented by IgorPro from Wavemetrics. With a little care, smooth curves with no artifacts can be obtained, in particular with oversampled data. We use it a lot with XPS data, where in

Matt, From my experience at the ESRF, many users dealing with XAFS data collected in continuous scan mode (either in angle, energy or time) apply the following workflow: 1) average many scans with PyMca; 2) import them in Athena; PyMca does a linear interpolation using the grid of the first

HI Ilya, Edmund, Carlo, Ilya and/or Carlo: can you post some example unbinned data? As it turns out, I am adding a rebinning feature in the Larch XAS Viewer GUI that should be ready for a ready-to-try release very soon (for IIT XAFS School and XAFS2018). This seems like a good chance to test the

Yes, we measure fast and have taken as many as 2 points. The problem is not in the shifts that you mention. This is normal and expected. the problem is specificallly in the rebinning algorithm in Demeter. It seems to be different than the one in the old Horae package. I have done a t

Dear Carlo, do you also measure as fast as possible in the sense that for two consecutive scans the points on the energy axis are not at the same positions? This is what happens at my beamline. The differences are typically very small but there are differences and one should not just add all

Hi Ilya: We always take data in this mode at APS Sector 10 and I have also find that the rebinning function is not working satisfactorily at this time. I find that for the current version of the software it is better to merge your data and let IFEFFIT interpolate to the dk=0.05 grid that i

Hi all, I have a question regarding the chi(k) function isolation and rebinning processes. I have some data recorded in “quasi channel-cut” modus, i.e. with the mono constantly moving and the data points collected with the highest possible rate. With 180 sec measurement in yields to a spectrum
