## Detailed Description

processing and holographic mapping of angle scanned XPD data.

the functions in this file map angle scanned data measured at PEARL onto a hemispherical angle grid which is compatible with XPDplot. the resulting data are in a canonical polar coordinate system (normal emission <=> polar angle = 0, azimuthal axis right-handed) which is anchored in the sample surface. the orientation of polar graphs (phi = 0 at 3 o'clock) created by this procedure corresponds to a top view of the sample surface at normal emission, and the handle of the sample plate pointing to the left (phi = 180). this is the canonical orientation of a spherical coordinate system where phi = 0 corresponds to the positive part of the x axis.

Note
  the orientation of the sample coordinate system has changed in version 1.6. the change was necessary for compatibility with other data analysis software and calculation programs.
  data imported with version 1.5 and earlier, must be offset by 180 deg in phi to be compatible with the new version. data imported and displayed by the same code version will give the same picture but with different azimuthal axis. the new graph functions shows a warning if they are applied to code imported with earlier versions.

the measurement geometry is hard-coded but may be parametrized in the future. the theta rotation axis is perpendicular to the scattering plane. the angle dispersive axis of the analyser is parallel to the theta rotation axis. the tilt rotation axis is in the scattering plane. it rotates with theta. at normal emission it is perpendicular to the axis of the lens stack of the analyser. the phi rotation axis corresponds to the surface normal of the sample. it rotates with theta and with tilt. at normal emission it is parallel to the axis of the lens stack of the analyser.

coordinate transformations: (to be revised - v1.6)

    *      theta_sample = theta_manipulator - theta_offset
    *      phi_sample = phi_manipulator - phi_offset
    *

valid for theta_manipulator = normal emission only: (to be revised - v1.6)

    *      theta_sample = | -(tilt_manipulator - tilt_offset) |
    *      phi_sample = 270 if tilt_manipulator - tilt_offset > 0
    *      phi_sample = 90 if tilt_manipulator - tilt_offset < 0
    *

static

displays an empty polar graph

the graph is drawn using Wavemetrics "New Polar Graphs.ipf".

initially the graph is empty. hemispherical scans are displayed by adding a trace that coveres the whole plot area, and setting the trace color to a function of the intensity. traces are added by calling WMPolarAppendTrace.

the following items of the graph > packages menu might be useful:

- modify polar graph
- color table control
- show polar cursors
- polar graph legend

parameters can be changed programmatically as shown in the code of this function. after programmatic parameter changes, call WMPolarAxesRedrawGraphNow(graphname).

Parameters

  graphname | requested name of new graph window. if empty, a default name is assigned. if a window with this name is existing, the function brings it to the front, and does nothing else.
  angle_offset | azimuth (on screen) where angle 0 is plotted (zeroAngleWhere parameter of polar graphs). starting with version 1.6, the default is 0. for hemi grids created with earlier versions, it should be set to 180 for correct orientation.

  - 0 none
  - 1 major azimuthal
  - 2 minor azimuthal

Returns
  the name of the graph window.

Version
  1.7 interface change: the trace drawing code is moved to display_hemi_scan, so that this function can be reused by other graph types, e.g. display_scanlines.

Definition at line 1811 of file pearl-anglescan-process.ipf.

duplicate a hemispherical scan dataset.

this function works only for hemi scans created by make_hemi_grid() (or compatible functions). the angle grid is recreated rather than copied point-by-point. the new dataset is independent from the original one.

  dest_nickname | name prefix for destination waves. must be unique in the current data folder. otherwise existing waves get overwritten. may be empty.

dfr find_hemi_data | ( | string | nickname,

the function looks for holo waves in the following order:

to display the result call display_hemi_scan() with graphtype=3.

Parameters

divide the strip by a sine function in phi (wobble correction).

the sine function is a curve fit to the intensity integrated over detector angle with a period of 360°.

this normalization may be useful if the intensity varies with a 360° periodicity in the azimuthal angle, e.g. due to misalignment of the surface normal and the azimuthal rotation axis of the manipulator (wobble). note, however, that this function does not correct other effects of wobble such as angle shifts.

  [in] | theta | polar manipulator angle.
