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 particle size distribution from isotropic scattering patterns, and it works fine and quick. Now though, I managed to get this trial-and-error procedure to work for whole 2D pattens as well! [...]
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 the MRS-J conference in Yokohama. While it was a nice opportunity to present and meet people, it is a relatively small conference. With that in mind, I decided to re-record [...]
More statistics and change of job
Hello dear readers, As a followup on my previous story, a colleague of mine sent me this paper that helps explain the standard deviation, standard error and confidence intervals. A useful, and funny read: Click here. The second noteworthy item is that I have, as of November 1st, started working at the National Institute for [...]
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 discuss statistics, they can tell you whether your observations are real or just imaginary. In addition, statistics will let you know whether you have been able to describe your scattering [...]
