calibration: take the beam centre from the rings too
The header's beam centre was the last input the ring fit had to be roughly right about. Each ring is looked for in a window a few pixels of radius wide, and a centre wrong by (dx, dy) puts a ring at a different q in every sector, so past about ten pixels the ring leaves that window over much of the turn - and the fit then reads its cos(phi) signal off whichever sectors are left, which are the ones where the signal is weakest. A 20 px error ended 31 px wrong. The rings answer this without a calibrant and without a distance. A powder ring is a conic centred on the beam, so a wrong centre makes EVERY ring's radius oscillate once per turn by the same amount: r(phi) = R + dx cos(phi) + dy sin(phi), solved directly and pooled over every ring the profile shows, with each ring searched about its own measured radius rather than about where a standard says it should be. Using it needs the extraction to follow the rings sector by sector, which is what ProfileRingTrack now does - exactly, and in all five parameters at once, by walking the ring in the geometry believed true and asking the binned geometry what q and azimuth it would have given each point. That replaces the flat-detector distance correction it grew out of. Following the rings is not free, and the reason is worth stating: a window that moves with phi makes every systematic of the peak finder - where the background line is taken, how the centroid sits in the window - vary with phi as well, and phi is exactly the axis the beam centre is read off. Measured, it costs rms 0.415 -> 0.525 px on a good 110 mm fit, and 0.831 when the window follows the fitted tilt too. So a second measurement is taken with a window that is the same in every sector - the binned geometry with only its DISTANCE replaced, which is phi-independent by construction - and both are offered to the same rule that ranks everything else here. Acquire by following, measure by holding still. The seeded centre is likewise a hypothesis and not a belief. It reads a once-per-turn wobble, and a tilt puts a term of that shape there too - one that grows as the radius squared, where a centre error does not - so pooling the rings absorbs part of the tilt into the centre. Believed outright it made a good 110 mm fit worse; offered as an alternative start it costs one more fit and needs no rule about when it applies. It is skipped entirely below a pixel, where it is not a different hypothesis at all, which keeps a well-headed run at 0.71 s. Measured on the 110 mm LaB6 exposure, whose true PONI is 765.90: a header centre 20 px out now lands within 0.5 px, where before it landed 31 px away. All five datasets are unchanged from their correct headers, and the distance still recovers from any header between 25 and 1200 mm. The limit is now understood rather than merely reached. Past a few pixels the azimuthally averaged profile stops showing rings: a ring tracing r(phi) piles up density where that turns round, so it averages into the two HORNS of the sinusoid, at R-|d| and R+|d|. The radius finder reports two rings where there is one, and the gap between them is 2|d| - the search window shrinks to exactly the offset it was meant to span. That caps recovery at roughly half the ring spacing, about 20 px here and failing by 40. Beyond it nothing is left in an azimuthally binned profile, and --calibration spots, which works from the spot positions themselves, is the method that still can. One pre-existing limit measured and NOT introduced here: a wrong distance together with a centre more than about 5 px out fails, because the centre error splits the radius list the distance search reads. The committed code before this change fails identically on those cases. Also fixed: fit_from now takes a whole geometry rather than a distance, and the declined-tilt refit was inheriting rot1/rot2 from it - pinning the tilt at exactly the unvalidated value the gate had just rejected. Same fault the gate exists to catch, one level up. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01NfuDvf5ipV3Hi8TiCUKD27 |

calibration: only report a tilt the fit actually measured
The detector tilt is refined by default, and on a pattern that cannot separate it from the beam centre the fit returns one anyway - there was nothing to stop it. Both displace a ring's radius as cos(phi), and only how that amplitude grows with the ring's radius tells them apart, which takes two well-sampled rings. At 500 mm on the LaB6 series only two rings reach the detector and the outer one is barely there: the tilt came out at the opposite sign to every shorter distance, dragged the PONI 28 px, and bought a residual of 0.960 px against 0.962 pinned. The covariance says so plainly - 0.1 sigma, and a beam centre quoted to +-180 px. So ask it. A tilt is kept only where the fit had it free AND it stands at least three times its own uncertainty; otherwise rot1/rot2 go back to the header's values and the beam centre and distance are refitted around them. Over the series the tilt stands at 50, 33, 15 and 8 sigma at 110 to 300 mm and 0.1 at 500 mm, so any threshold between 2 and 5 gives the same verdict on all five - this says which regime a fit is in, not where a line was drawn. The declined 500 mm fit lands on a direct beam of 773.53 px, against 773.56 for the pinned fit measured independently. It is a rejection criterion and nothing more. Clearing it does not certify a tilt: that estimator is limited by systematics rather than by this sigma, and a coherent half-pixel error in the ring positions fakes a tilt of the usual size while leaving sigma small. The report says "refined", never "verified". Writing the gate turned up a related fault in the pass loop. RingOptimizer pins the tilt by itself when every point it is given lies on one ring, and on a barely-sampled pattern a later pass lands in exactly that state - which froze the tilt at whatever the FIRST pass had produced and returned it with sigma zero, an unmeasured tilt wearing the appearance of a fixed one. The gate reads that as "not measured" and refits pinned, which is why it is stated over the geometry that gets reported rather than over what the last fit happened to do. Both paths are covered, profile and spots; the spots path was reporting a refined tilt as declined for the same reason. Two things measured and NOT taken: A robust loss. A Cauchy loss scaled to the previous pass's median residual changed nothing on the series - rms 0.415 to 0.421 at 110 mm, no case improved, every direct beam within 0.06 px. Ring points are per-sector peaks that already had to stand 3 sigma clear of their own background, so there are no gross outliers left to reject. Recorded at the call site rather than left as an unused option. A quality gate that refuses a bad calibration. Three candidate signals, all measured against naming the wrong standard on LaB6 data: sigma(PONI) does not see it at all (0.52-0.65 px, indistinguishable from healthy); the residual only half sees it (3.2-3.6 px wrong against 0.4-1.0 right, but a correct run from a wrong header sits at 1.0-2.4 and would be caught too); and the seed's match score is dominated by how many rings the calibrant lists, scoring 0.29 for a perfect LaB6 fit against 0.21 for a wrongly named silicon. None of the three separates, so no gate is shipped. What the run does say is the recovered distance against the header, and a wrong standard moves that to 446 mm on a 110 mm exposure - unmissable, and the operator's call rather than a threshold's.

calibration: take the detector distance from the rings, not from the header
A powder calibration is run because nobody is sure the header is right, and the header's distance was the one number the fit could not survive being wrong about. The ring search is local - each ring is looked for inside a window a few pixels of radius wide - so a distance more than a percent or two out puts every ring outside its own window, and the fit then converges on whatever background fluctuation each window contains. It does not fail: a 110 mm exposure told the detector was at 150 mm reported 149.8 mm, with 146 ring points and exit 0. Only its residual said anything, 5.3 px against 0.4 px, and nothing read it. Measure the distance from the rings instead. The peaks of the azimuthally averaged profile give ring RADII, and a radius does not depend on the assumed distance at all - bin i holds the pixels at one particular radius whatever q that radius was called - so the radii are a property of the image. Against the calibrant's d-spacings, r = D tan(2 asin(lambda/2d)) then has one unknown. It is scanned rather than solved because the pairing of observed rings to d-spacings is unknown too, and the winning basin is solved in closed form. Nothing here reads the header distance except to bin the profile; it needs only the wavelength, the pixel size and the detector's extent. A powder pattern has genuine distance aliases, so one answer is not enough. A cubic primitive standard puts its rings at radii proportional to sqrt(N), and scaling the distance by sqrt(2) maps ring N onto ring 2N - most of the comb still lands on peaks. Measured: the 110 mm exposure with a 115 mm header scored its best at 156.5 mm, which is 110*sqrt(2). No adjustment of the score removes an alias the lattice really has, so the scan hands back the few best distances and each is fitted, the header among them as one hypothesis of several. The residual then separates them - 0.4 px against 5.2 px on that case - subject to an attempt explaining a comparable share of the pattern first, because a start so wrong that one ring point survives leaves a residual of exactly zero. Each attempt re-extracts at the geometry it converged to and fits again. The seed is measured from blended peaks and is good to about a per cent, close enough to converge from but far enough to sit every search window a few pixels off its ring, and an off-centre window takes its background off the ring's own flank. Nothing is re-read from disk, so the loop is free. Measured on the LaB6 distance series. A 110 mm dataset now recovers 110.03-110.17 mm from any header between 25 and 1200 mm, against +-2 mm before. All five datasets recover their own distance from a fixed wrong 250 mm header. With correct headers, four of the five are bit-identical to before and the 500 mm one moves by a single ring point - the two-ring fit whose tilt is 0.1 sigma anyway. Run time is unchanged at 0.62 s. The residual is larger on a run whose header was wrong (1.1 px against 0.4 px on the 110 mm case), because the profile was still binned at the wrong distance and its radial sampling is correspondingly coarse. The geometry is right; only the scatter about it is inflated. Re-running with the recovered distance recovers the residual too.
