Normalization TOF

Description

This notebook will perform the normalization of any Time-of-Flight (TOF) imaging data using either Timepix or Timepix3 data sets. The algorithm will take into account the proton charge and the the number of frames of each data sets to improve the normalization.

After selecting the top sample folder, containing 1 or many run numbers, from the autoreduce/mcp folder (data corrected for detector efficiency), the open beam (OB) top folder is selected, then the output folder where the data need to be exported at the end.

Tutorial

Select your IPTS

Select sample folder

Select the folder that contains all the runs you want to normalize using the folder selection tool.

Select ob folder

Select the folder containing the ob runs.

Select output folder

Select where you want to export the normalize images. A new folder based on the name of the sample folder will be created there.

example:

• sample folder: this_is_my_data_set
• output folder: this_is_my_data_set_normalized

Launch the normalization

this will trigger the normalization and the output cell will keep you updated of what is going on.
