example of generic 1D SAS data in a time series, I(Q(t), t)
SASroot SASentry SASdata @Q_indices=0,1 @I_axes="Time,Q" I: float[nTime,100] Q: float[nTime,100] Time: float[nTime]
2D
example of simple 2D (image) SAS data, I(Q)
SASroot SASentry SASdata @Q_indices=0,1 @I_axes="Q,Q" I: float[100, 512] Qx: float[100, 512] Qy: float[100, 512]
example of a simple masked 2D (image) SAS data, I(Q)
SASroot SASentry SASdata @Q_indices=0,1 @I_axes="Q,Q" @Mask_indices=0,1 I: float[100, 512] Qx: float[100, 512] Qy: float[100, 512] Mask: int[100, 512]
example of generic 2D SAS data, I(Q)
Could use this model, for example, to describe data from multiple detectors (by listing individual pixels off all detectors). Or, could describe data from one detector of any geometry. This is the most flexible.
SASroot SASentry SASdata @Q_indices=0 @I_axes="Q" I: float[100*512] Qx: float[100*512] Qy: float[100*512] Qz: float[100*512]
example of simple 2D SAS/WAS data, Isas(Q) & Iwas(Q)
Consider the multi-technique experiment that produces small-angle and wide-angle scattering data images. The reduced data results in images as well. Each image might be described separately (see [[2012_Data_Discussion_Examples#example_of_SAS_data_with_several_detectors.2C_I.28Q.29 | example of SAS data with several detectors]] for an alternative). Here the SAS data image is 100 x 512 pixels. The WAS data (not covered by this canSAS standard) is 256 x 256 pixels.
SASroot SASentry SASdata @name="sasdata" @Q_indices=0,1 @I_axes="Q,Q" I: float[100, 512] Qx: float[100, 512] Qy: float[100, 512] SASdata @name="wasdata" @Q_indices=0,1 @I_axes="Q,Q" I: float[256, 256] Qx: float[256, 256] Qy: float[256, 256]
example of 2D SANS and 2D SAXS, In(Q) & Ix(Q)
Consider the multi-technique experiment that produces small-angle neutron and X-ray scattering data. Here the SANS data image is 100 x 512 pixels and the SAXS data is 256 x 256 pixels.
SASroot SASentry SASdata @name="sans" @Q_indices=0 @I_axes="Q" I: float[100*512] Qx: float[100*512] Qy: float[100*512] SASdata @name="saxs" @Q_indices=0 @I_axes="Q" I: float[256*256] Qx: float[256*256] Qy: float[256*256]
2D with additional varied parameters
example of generic 2D SAS data in a time series, I(Q(t),t)
SASroot SASentry SASdata @Q_indices=0,1 @I_axes="Time,Q" I: float[nTime,100*512] Qx: float[nTime,100*512] Qy: float[nTime,100*512] Qz: float[nTime,100*512] Time: float[nTime]
example of 2D SAS data as images in a time series with a time-independent mask, I(Q(t),t)
This example explores a bit of complexity added to the previous example.
SASroot SASentry SASdata @Q_indices=0,1,2 @I_axes="Time,Q,Q" @Mask_indices=1,2 I: float[nTime,100,512] Qx: float[nTime,100,512] Qy: float[nTime,100,512] Qz: float[nTime,100,512] Time: float[nTime] Mask: int[100,512]
example of generic 2D SAS data in a time, T, & P series, I(t,T,P,Q(t,T,P))
SASroot SASentry SASdata @Q_indices=0,1,2,3 @I_axes="Time,Temperature,Pressure,Q" I: float[nTime,nTemperature,nPressure,100*512] Qx: float[nTime,nTemperature,nPressure,100*512] Qy: float[nTime,nTemperature,nPressure,100*512] Qz: float[nTime,nTemperature,nPressure,100*512] Time: float[nTime] T: float[nTemperature] P: float[nPressure]
example of generic 2D SAS data (images) in a time, T, & P series, I(T,t,P,Q(t))
SASroot SASentry SASdata @Q_indices=1,3,4 @I_axes="Temperature,Time,Pressure,Q,Q" I: float[nTemperature,nTime,nPressure,100,512] Qx: float[nTime,100,512] Qy: float[nTime,100,512] Qz: float[nTime,100,512] Time: float[nTime] Temperature: float[nTemperature] Pressure: float[nPressure]
example of SAS data with several detectors, I(Q)
Here, the data are appended to common data objects. This hypothetical case has reduced data derived from three detectors, Ia(Q), Ib(Q), and Ic(Q):
- Ia(Q) is derived from a 2D detector (100 x 512 pixels)
- Ib(Q) is derived from a 1D detector (2000 pixels)
- Ic(Q) is derived from a 2D detector (256 x 256 pixels)
Data from a SAXS/MAXS/WAXS instrument might be represented thus.
SASroot SASentry SASdata @Q_indices=0 @I_axes="Q" I: float[100*512 + 2000 + 256*256] Qx: float[100*512 + 2000 + 256*256] Qy: float[100*512 + 2000 + 256*256] Qz: float[100*512 + 2000 + 256*256]
invalid case
example of **over-simple** 2D (image) SAS data, I(Q)
Invalid because the method of addressing the Q values is different from all the above.
SASroot SASentry SASdata @Q_indices="*,*" @I_axes=" ??? " I: float[100, 512] Qx: float[100] Qy: float[512]
terms
SASroot
same use as original 1D format
SASentry
some changes from the original 1D format
needs a version attribute that describes the version of the canSAS definition of SASentry (use version="1.0")
SASdata
different use from original 1D format, refers to a single reduced data set that can be represented thus (such as from one detector)
SASdata has some possible attributes, as shown in this example:
@Q_indices=1,3,4 @I_axes="Temperature,Time,Pressure,Q,Q" @Mask_indices=3,4
To indicate the dependency relationships of other varied parameters, use attributes similar to @Mask_indices (such as @Temperature_indices or @Pressure_indices).
@Q_indices
Array attribute that describes which indices (of the I data object) are used to reference Q. The items in this array use zero-based indexing.
@I_axes
Comma-separated list that describes the names of the data objects that correspond to the indices of the I object.
@Mask_indices
Array attribute that describes which indices (of the I data object) are used to reference Mask. The items in this array use zero-based indexing.
