Description-en: Fast Azimuthal Integration scripts - Python2
PyFAI is a Python library for azimuthal integration; it allows the conversion
of diffraction images taken with 2D detectors like CCD cameras into X-Ray
powder patterns that can be used by other software like Rietveld refinement
tools (i.e. FullProf), phase analysis or texture analysis.
.
As PyFAI is a library, its main goal is to be integrated in other tools like
PyMca, LiMa or EDNA. To perform online data analysis, the precise description
of the experimental setup has to be known. This is the reason why PyFAI
includes geometry optimization code working on "powder rings" of reference
samples. Alternatively, PyFAI can also import geometries fitted with other
tools like Fit2D.
.
PyFAI has been designed to work with any kind of detector with any geometry
(transmission, reflection, off-axis, ...). It uses the Python library FabIO
to read most images taken by diffractometer.
.
This is the Python 2 version of the package.
