Member Function Documentation

def Modules.Calibration.TOFCalibrationPoint.calculate_time_of_flight (   self) 
Calculates the time of flight.
    In case of ERD use:
    
    t = l/(sqrt( 2 * (k * E_I0 - dE_RT1) / M_R))
    where:
    
    E_I0 = beam energy
    dE_RT1 = stopping energy of the recoiled particle
    M_R = mass of the recoiled particle
    M_I = mass of the scattered particle
    k = kinetic factor, which is (4 * M_I * M_R * cos(a)^2) / (M_I + M_R)^2
    
    In case of RBS use:
    
    t = l/(sqrt( 2 * (k * E_I0 - dE_IT1) / M_R))
    where:
    
    dE_RT1 = stopping energy of the scattered particle
    M_R = mass of the recoiled particle
    M_I = mass of the scattered particle
    k = kinetic factor, which is (sqrt(( M_R^2 - M_I^2 * cos(a)^2) + M_I * 
    cos(a)) / (M_I + M_R))^2
    
    
    Return:
Calculated time of flight as float. None if the cut file's type is 
not either ERD or RBS.
def Modules.Calibration.TOFCalibrationPoint.get_name (   self) 
Get name of the used CutFile.

Return:
    Returns name of the used CutFile.
def Modules.Calibration.TOFCalibrationPoint.get_point (   self) 
Get TOFCalibrationPoint values in tuple.

Return:
    Returns TOFCalibrationPoint values in tuple.
def Modules.Calibration.TOFCalibrationPoint.get_tof_channel (   self) 
Get Time of Flight channel.

Return:
    Returns Time of Flight channel.
def Modules.Calibration.TOFCalibrationPoint.get_tof_seconds (   self) 
Get Time of Flight seconds.

Return:
    Returns Time of Flight seconds.
