LAMPSQw

Readers for dynamic data

class MDMC.readers.observables.LAMPSQw.LAMPSQw(file_name: str)[source]

A class for reading SQw files from LAMP

LAMP’s ascii output uses three files: 1 for independent variables and parameters (…_LAMP), another for dependent variables (…_LAMPascii), and a third for the errors in the dependent variables (…LAMPascii_e)

file_indep

File containing the independent variables

Type:: file

file_dep

File containing the dependent variables

Type:: file

file_dep_err

File containing the errors on the dependent variables

Type:: file

parse(**settings: dict) → None[source]

Parse into SQw format

E is the energy transfer (in meV) Q is wavevector transfer (in Ang^-1)

parse_dep_var(file: IO) → ndarray[source]

Parses the dependent variables or their errors.

Parameters:: file (file) – Open file containing independent data
Returns:: A 2d array with dimensions of the two independent variables
Return type:: numpy.ndarray

parse_indep_var(file: IO) → tuple[ndarray, ndarray][source]

Parses the independent variables

Splits the file so that the data can be extracted into a array by self._get_data

Parameters:: file (file) – Open file containing independent data
Returns:: (X, Y) where X and Y are arrays of the two independent variables
Return type:: tuple
