Ruler vs. Silver behenate: Trust but verify
One of the most important parameters you need when analyzing small-angle scattering patterns is the distance from the sample to the detector, as this defines […]

Movie: Monte-carlo fitting of anisotropic scattering
I have worked on monte-carlo procedures for a while now. Initially (while working for Aarhus University), I managed to make these work to extract the […]
Nothing new here
So it seems science has beaten us to the punch once again. Remember last week’s optimistic story on how you can make better use of […]
Making better use of your time: optimizing measurement time
Often, especially when measuring on big facilities, you are given a limited amount of time. So when it comes to measuring the sample and the […]
Data processing flowchart and news on an old publication
Short news first; by going through the motions and waiting for Elsevier to get back to me, I have gotten permission (for the royal sum […]
New video online- presenting observability
Dear readers, First of all, a merry end-of-year thingie (insert name here) to all of you. Last week, I presented a short 15-minute talk at […]
Detail-preserving 2D binning, part 1: the appetizer
(Sorry about the hiatus, there’s been a period filled with that noblest of Japanese traditions: paperwork!) If you want to do fitting of a 2D […]
Everybody hates statistics…
Everybody hates statistics [1]… … but it can be of major importance in our small angle world. While very few papers on small-angle scattering […]
Revisiting observability in polydisperse systems: “real” polydispersity
edited on 2011-07-20 14:51 to add equation defining observability Of course I could not leave you hanging after the last post with that question “does […]
Observability in polydisperse systems. What is all the accuracy for?
Abstract of this post: In this post, I will show that for a spherical two-particle system, the observability of the smaller particle scales with the […]
