| 27 | 3. Add data (histogram) to the Experiment |
|---|
| 28 | </H1> |
|---|
| 29 | |
|---|
| 30 | The next step in the tutorial is to add data. Note that |
|---|
| 31 | GSAS uses the term |
|---|
| 32 | histogram to refer to a powder diffraction data set. |
|---|
| 33 | To add data, switch to the Histogram in EXPGUI pane and press the |
|---|
| 34 | "Add New Histogram" button in the lower right. |
|---|
| 35 | <img src="addhs1.gif" ALIGN=LEFT> |
|---|
| 36 | This brings up the "add new histogram" dialog, to the left. |
|---|
| 37 | Press on the upper "Select File" button for a dialog box to select |
|---|
| 38 | a data file. |
|---|
| 39 | |
|---|
| 40 | <BR clear=left> |
|---|
| 41 | <P><img src="addhs2a.gif" ALIGN=LEFT> |
|---|
| 42 | Select the appropriate file, in this case garnet.raw and press |
|---|
| 43 | the "Open" button. |
|---|
| 44 | |
|---|
| 45 | At this stage, different things can happen. |
|---|
| 46 | If the file is not correctly formatted, |
|---|
| 47 | <A HREF="../tutorial1/nickelnotes.html#reformat">a dialog will offer |
|---|
| 48 | to convert the file to the correct format.</a> |
|---|
| 49 | Also, in some cases, the data file specifies the name of the instrument |
|---|
| 50 | parameter file. If so, that name will be loaded into the "Instrument |
|---|
| 51 | Parameter file" box. If not, as in this case, the file must be selected |
|---|
| 52 | by pressing the lower "Select File" button which creates a |
|---|
| 53 | dialog box to select an instrument parameter file, similar |
|---|
| 54 | to the one above. |
|---|
| 55 | <BR clear=left> |
|---|
| 56 | <P><img src="addhs3a.gif" ALIGN=LEFT> |
|---|
| 57 | The appropriate instrument parameter file is then located and selected. |
|---|
| 58 | Note that since only one bank of data is present in the file, |
|---|
| 59 | bank 1 is selected automatically however one must know something |
|---|
| 60 | about the instrument parameter file to know that bank 1 is the |
|---|
| 61 | appropriate contents. |
|---|
| 62 | Finally one must enter either the minimum d-space or |
|---|
| 63 | maximum two-theta to be used from the data (note that |
|---|
| 64 | this value can be changed later if need be from EXPEDT). A |
|---|
| 65 | good wat to do this is to use |
|---|
| 66 | <A HREF="../tutorial1/nickelnotes.html#rawplot">RAWPLOT</A> |
|---|
| 67 | to look at the data. This is done |
|---|
| 68 | by pressing the "Run RAWPLOT" button at the |
|---|
| 69 | lower right <A HREF="../tutorial1/nickelnotes.html#rawplot">(example).</A> |
|---|
| 70 | The GSAS tutorial in the manual suggests using 159 for this refinement. |
|---|
| 71 | |
|---|
| 72 | When all input is complete, press Add to run program EXPTOOL and read the |
|---|
| 73 | data into the .EXP file. |
|---|
| 74 | |
|---|
| 75 | <BR clear=left> |
|---|
| 76 | <P><img src="addhs4a.gif" ALIGN=LEFT> |
|---|
| 77 | The results from the EXPTOOL are shown in a separate box, so |
|---|
| 78 | that errors can be noted. After OK is pressed, the histogram |
|---|
| 79 | is now listed on the Histogram pane (see below). |
