Category DIFFRN_SCAN

Name:
'diffrn_scan'

Description:

   Data items in the DIFFRN_SCAN category describe the parameters of one
     or more scans, relating axis positions to frames.


Examples:

Example 1 - derived from a suggestion by R. M. Sweet. The vector of each axis is not given here, because it is provided in the AXIS category. By making _diffrn_scan_axis.scan_id and _diffrn_scan_axis.axis_id keys of the DIFFRN_SCAN_AXIS category, an arbitrary number of scanning and fixed axes can be specified for a scan. In this example, three rotation axes and one translation axis at nonzero values are specified, with one axis stepping. There is no reason why more axes could not have been specified to step. Range information has been specified, but note that it can be calculated from the number of frames and the increment, so the data item _diffrn_scan_axis.angle_range could be dropped. Both the sweep data and the data for a single frame are specified. Note that the information on how the axes are stepped is given twice, once in terms of the overall averages in the value of _diffrn_scan.integration_time and the values for DIFFRN_SCAN_AXIS, and precisely for the given frame in the value for _diffrn_scan_frame.integration_time and the values for DIFFRN_SCAN_FRAME_AXIS. If dose-related adjustments are made to scan times and nonlinear stepping is done, these values may differ. Therefore, in interpreting the data for a particular frame it is important to use the frame-specific data.

Example 2 - a more extensive example (R. M. Sweet, P. J. Ellis & H. J. Bernstein). A detector is placed 240 mm along the Z axis from the goniometer. This leads to a choice: either the axes of the detector are defined at the origin, and then a Z setting of -240 is entered, or the axes are defined with the necessary Z offset. In this case, the setting is used and the offset is left as zero. This axis is called DETECTOR_Z. The axis for positioning the detector in the Y direction depends on the detector Z axis. This axis is called DETECTOR_Y. The axis for positioning the detector in the X direction depends on the detector Y axis (and therefore on the detector Z axis). This axis is called DETECTOR_X. This detector may be rotated around the Y axis. This rotation axis depends on the three translation axes. It is called DETECTOR_PITCH. A coordinate system is defined on the face of the detector in terms of 2300 0.150 mm pixels in each direction. The ELEMENT_X axis is used to index the first array index of the data array and the ELEMENT_Y axis is used to index the second array index. Because the pixels are 0.150mm x 0.150mm, the centre of the first pixel is at (0.075, 0.075) in this coordinate system.

Example 3 - Example 2 revised for a spiral scan (R. M. Sweet, P. J. Ellis & H. J. Bernstein). A detector is placed 240 mm along the Z axis from the goniometer, as in Example 2 above, but in this example the image plate is scanned in a spiral pattern from the outside edge in. The axis for positioning the detector in the Y direction depends on the detector Z axis. This axis is called DETECTOR_Y. The axis for positioning the detector in the X direction depends on the detector Y axis (and therefore on the detector Z axis). This axis is called DETECTOR_X. This detector may be rotated around the Y axis. This rotation axis depends on the three translation axes. It is called DETECTOR_PITCH. A coordinate system is defined on the face of the detector in terms of a coupled rotation axis and radial scan axis to form a spiral scan. The rotation axis is called ELEMENT_ROT and the radial axis is called ELEMENT_RAD. A 150 micrometre radial pitch and a 75 micrometre 'constant velocity' angular pitch are assumed. Indexing is carried out first on the rotation axis and the radial axis is made to be dependent on it. The two axes are coupled to form an axis set ELEMENT_SPIRAL.
