    2 ========= 
    3 Small angle X-ray and Neutron scattering (SAXS and SANS) examines the 
    4 scattering patterns produced by a beam travelling through the sample 
    5 and scattering at low angles.  The scattering is computed as a function 
    6 of reciprocal space $q$, which arises from a combination of beam wavelength 
    7 and scattering angles. Each pixel on the detector corresponds to 
    8 a different scattering angle, and has a distinct $q_x$ and $q_y$. If the 
    9 sample is unoriented, the scattering pattern will appear as rings on the 
    10 detector.  In this case, a circular average can be taken with 1-dimension 
    11 data at $q = \surd (q_x^2 + q_y^2)$ compared to the orientationally 
    12 averaged SAS scattering pattern.

    143The sasmodels package provides theory functions for small angle scattering 
    15 calculations for different shapes, including the effects of resolution, 
    16 polydispersity and orientational dispersion.
