[8a22b5b]12
13This tool enables X-ray users to calculate the slit size (FWHM/2) for smearing
14based on their half beam profile data.
15
16*NOTE! Whilst it may have some more generic applicability, the calculator has
17only been tested with beam profile data from Anton-Paar SAXSess*\ |TM|\ 
18*software.*

[ec392464]34
[8a22b5b]35*NOTE! The beam profile file does not carry any information about the units of
[a9dc4eb]36the Q data. This calculator assumes the data has units of 1/\ |Ang|\ . If the
[8a22b5b]37data is not in these units it must be manually converted beforehand.*
