Welcome to PDViPeR’s documentation!¶
PDViPeR [1] is a data analysis program developed for use on the Australian Synchrotron (AS) Powder Diffraction (PD) beamline. It takes data captured on the Mythen microstrip detector and performs the following post-processing operations:
- Reads .xye and .xy ASCII columnar data files and writes processed files in .xye format
- Visual comparison of datasets.
- Aligns and merges dataset pairs based on a user-specified alignment region.
- Two merge methods (splice and merge) with normalisation to a specified detector position or reference file.
- Outputs plots suitable for publication or editing: Vertically stacked series, interpolated 2D image and 3D waterfall plots.
- X-axis/abscissa rescaling between 2θ, d-space and Q units.
