learnsaxs

This project includes several notebooks and a small library to help you learn SAXS with Python in Jupyter, which cover the following subjects:

• viewing electron density voxels of an ellipsoid in 3D real space
• Fourier transform of the voxel values into the reciprocal space
• spherically averaging in the reciprocal space
• which produces a detector image and a scattering curve as shown in the figure below.

The notebooks are designed to use a minimum number of libraries, i.e.,

• numpy
• matplotlib
• learnsaxs

the last of which, "learnsaxs", is provided here to include following few functions

• draw_voxles_as_dots
• get_detector_info
• draw_detector_image

to make the notebook examples as concise as possible.

You can install the learnsaxs package using pip command as follows.

pip install learnsaxs

Hoping this may be of any help.
