    11 This currently performs correlation function analysis on SAXS/SANS data,  
    12 but in the the future is also planned to generate model-independent volume  
    13 fraction profiles from the SANS from adsorbed polymer/surfactant layers.  
    14 The two types of analyses differ in the mathematical transform that is  
    15 applied to the data (Fourier vs Hilbert). However, both functions are  
    16 returned in *real space*. 
     11This performs a correlation function analysis of one-dimensional 
     12SAXS/SANS data, or generates a model-independent volume fraction 
     13profile from the SANS from an adsorbed polymer/surfactant layer. 
    1714 
    1815A correlation function may be interpreted in terms of an imaginary rod moving 
    19 through the structure of the material. Γ(x) is the probability that a rod of  
    20 length x has equal electron/neutron scattering length density at either end.  
    21 Hence a frequently occurring spacing within a structure will manifest itself  
    22 as a peak in Γ(x). *SasView* will return both the one-dimensional ( Γ\ :sub:`1`\ (x) )  
    23 and three-dimensional ( Γ\ :sub:`3`\ (x) ) correlation functions, the difference  
    24 being that the former is only averaged in the plane of the scattering vector. 
    25  
    26 A volume fraction profile :math:`\Phi`\ (z) describes how the density of polymer  
    27 segments/surfactant molecules varies with distance, z, normal to an (assumed  
    28 locally flat) interface. The form of :math:`\Phi`\ (z) can provide information  
    29 about the arrangement of polymer/surfactant molecules at the interface. The width  
    30 of the profile provides measures of the layer thickness, and the area under  
    31 the profile is related to the amount of material that is adsorbed. 
    32  
    33 Both analyses are performed in 3 stages: 
    34  
    35 *  Extrapolation of the scattering curve to :math:`Q = 0` and toward  
     16through the structure of the material. Γ\ :sub:`1D`\ (R) is the probability that 
     17a rod of length R moving through the material has equal electron/neutron scattering 
     18length density at either end. Hence a frequently occurring spacing within a structure 
     19manifests itself as a peak. 
     20 
     21A volume fraction profile :math:`\Phi`\ (z) describes how the density of polymer segments/surfactant molecules varies with distance from an (assumed locally flat) interface. 
     22 
     23Both functions are returned in *real space*. 
     24 
     25The analysis is performed in 3 stages: 
     26 
     27*  Extrapolation of the scattering curve to :math:`Q = 0` and 
    3628   :math:`Q = \infty` 
    3729*  Smoothed merging of the two extrapolations into the original data 
    3830*  Fourier / Hilbert Transform of the smoothed data to give the correlation 
    39    function or volume fraction profile, respectively 
    40 *  (Optional) Interpretation of Γ\ :sub:`1`\ (x) assuming the sample conforms  
    41    to an ideal lamellar morphology 
     31   function / volume fraction profile, respectively 
     32*  (Optional) Interpretation of the 1D correlation function based on an ideal

    52 The data are extrapolated to q = 0 by fitting a Guinier function to the data 
    53 points in the low-q range. 
     43The data are extrapolated to Q = 0 by fitting a Guinier model to the data 
     44points in the low-Q range. 
    5445 
    5546The equation used is: 
    5647 
    5748.. math:: 
    58     I(q) = A e^{Bq^2} 
    59  
    60 Where the parameter :math:`B` is related to the effective radius-of-gyration of  
    61 a spherical object having the same small-angle scattering in this region. 
    62          
    63 Note that as q tends to zero this function tends to a limiting value and is  
    64 therefore less appropriate for use in systems where the form factor does not  
    65 do likewise. However, because of the transform, the correlation functions are  
    66 most affected by the Guinier back-extrapolation at *large* values of x where  
    67 the impact on any extrapolated parameters will be least significant. 
     49    I(Q) = Ae^{Bq^2} 
     50 
     51The Guinier model assumes that the small angle scattering arises from particles 
     52and that parameter :math:`B` is related to the radius of gyration of those 
     53particles. This has dubious applicability to polymer systems. However, the 
     54correlation function is affected by the Guinier back-extrapolation to the 
     55greatest extent at large values of R and so only has a 
     56small effect on the final analysis.

    6958To :math:`Q = \infty` 
    7059..................... 
    7160 
    72 The data are extrapolated towards q = :math:`\infty` by fitting a Porod model to 
    73 the data points in the high-q range and then computing the extrapolation to 100  
    74 times the maximum q value in the experimental dataset. This should be more than  
    75 sufficient to ensure that on transformation any truncation artefacts introduced  
    76 are at such small values of x that they can be safely ignored. 
     61The data are extrapolated to Q = :math:`\infty` by fitting a Porod model to 
     62the data points in the high-Q range. 
    7763 
    7864The equation used is: 
    7965 
    8066.. math:: 
    81     I(q) = K q^{-4}e^{-q^2\sigma^2} + Bg 
    82  
    83 Where :math:`Bg` is the background, :math:`K` is the Porod constant, and :math:`\sigma` (which  
    84 must be > 0) describes the width of the electron/neutron scattering length density  
    85 profile at the interface between the crystalline and amorphous regions as shown below. 
     67    I(Q) = K Q^{-4}e^{-Q^2\sigma^2} + Bg 
     68 
     69Where :math:`Bg` is the background, :math:`K` is the Porod 
     70constant, and :math:`\sigma` (which must be > 0) describes the width of the electron or neutron scattering length density profile at the interface between the crystalline and amorphous 
     71regions as shown below.

    94 The extrapolated data set consists of the Guinier back-extrapolation from q ~ 0 
    95 up to the lowest q value in the original data, then the original scattering data,  
    96 and then the Porod tail-fit beyond this. The joins between the original data and  
    97 the Guinier/Porod extrapolations are smoothed using the algorithm below to try  
    98 and avoid the formation of truncation ripples in the transformed data:

     102If "Fourier" is selected for the transform type, the analysis will perform a

    122  
    123 .. math:: 
    124     \Gamma _{1}(x) = \frac{1}{Q^{*}} \int_{0}^{\infty }I(q) q^{2} cos(qx) dq 
    125  
    126 where Q\ :sup:`*` is the Scattering (also called Porod) Invariant.

     107    \Gamma _{1D}(R) = \frac{1}{Q^{*}} \int_{0}^{\infty }I(q) q^{2} cos(qR) dq 
     108

    135 The 3D correlation function is calculated as: 
    136  
    137 .. math:: 
    138     \Gamma _{3}(x) = \frac{1}{Q^{*}} \int_{0}^{\infty}I(q) q^{2} 
    139     \frac{sin(qx)}{qx} dq 
    140  
    141 .. note:: It is always advisable to inspect Γ\ :sub:`1`\ (x) and Γ\ :sub:`3`\ (x)  
    142     for artefacts arising from the extrapolation and transformation processes: 
    143          
    144         - do they tend to zero as x tends to :math:`\infty`? 
    145         - do they smoothly curve onto the ordinate at x = 0? (if not check the value  
    146           of :math:`\sigma` is sensible) 
    147         - are there ripples at x values corresponding to (2 :math:`pi` over) the two  
    148           q values at which the extrapolated and experimental data are merged? 
    149         - are there any artefacts at x values corresponding to 2 :math:`pi` / q\ :sub:`max` in  
    150           the experimental data?  
    151         - and lastly, do the significant features/peaks in the correlation functions  
    152           actually correspond to anticpated spacings in the sample?!!! 
    153  
    154 Finally, the program calculates the interface distribution function (IDF) g\ :sub:`1`\ (x) as  
    155 the discrete cosine transform of:

    157 .. math:: 
    158     -q^{4} I(q) 
    159  
    160 The IDF is proportional to the second derivative of Γ\ :sub:`1`\ (x). 
     118The 3D correlation function is also calculated: 
     119 
     120.. math:: 
     121    \Gamma _{3D}(R) = \frac{1}{Q^{*}} \int_{0}^{\infty}I(q) q^{2} 
     122    \frac{sin(qR)}{qR} dq

    178 Once the correlation functions have been calculated *SasView* can be asked to  
    179 try and interpret Γ\ :sub:`1`\ (x) in terms of an ideal lamellar morphology  
    180 as shown below. 
     140Once the correlation function has been calculated it may be interpreted by clicking the "Compute Parameters" button. 
     141 
     142The correlation function is interpreted in terms of an ideal lamellar 
     143morphology, and structural parameters are obtained from it as shown below. 
     144It should be noted that a small beam size is assumed; ie, no de-smearing is
