-====== PolyXSim ====== 
- 
-PolyXSim allows you to simulate multigrain crystallography diffraction patterns. 
- 
-==== Introduction ==== 
- 
-From the original manual, PolyXSim is a program which simulates 3DXRD diffraction patterns of polycrystalline (multiphase) materials for the “far-field” case, as it is called in 3DXRD community, e.g. with the detector far away from the sample (i.e. at 400 mm for instance). For high pressure diamond anvil cell experiments,​ it is the standard case. 
- 
-The potential use include 
-  * Training at handling multigrain crystallography data, 
-  * Simulating 3DXRD diffraction patterns for debugging of indexing, overlap and integration routines 
-  * Simulating patterns for a specific material to estimate the degree of spot overlap, and thereby feasibility,​ before an actual experiment is performed. This implies some statistics on the images – to be handled by a separate module. 
- 
-The new page for PolyXSim source code is within the [[https://​github.com/​FABLE-3DXRD/​PolyXSim|FABLE-3DXRD project at github]]. There is an old source code at the [[https://​sourceforge.net/​p/​fable/​code/​HEAD/​tree/​simulation/​PolyXSim/​trunk/​|old fable website at sourceforge]]. 
- 
-The original manual is available at this page [[https://​sourceforge.net/​p/​fable/​wiki/​PolyXSim/​]]. 
- 
-The software is free but with a copyright to Henning Osholm Sørensen, Risø National Laboratory, DK-4000 Roskilde, Denmark ​ 
- 
-===== Getting started ===== 
- 
-The first step is to create an input file (ASCII-file with .inp ending) 
- 
-The format of the file should look like the following: 
- 
-{{:​software:​input_file_instruments.png?​900|}} 
- 
-For running the simulation, navigate to the folder where the input file is saved and type to the Konsole 
- 
-    PolyXSim.py -i '​inputfile'​.inp 
- 
-===== Detailed instructions ===== 
- 
-You will find an extensive example of how to use PolyXSim in this section: [[processing:​synthetic_dataset|Creation of a synthetic dataset]]
