This reference manual describes the public functions, modules, and objects in diffsims. Some of the descriptions include brief examples. For learning how to use diffsims, see the demos.

Caution

diffsims is in continuous development, meaning that some breaking changes and changes to this reference are likely with each release.

Modules

generators	Generation of diffraction simulations and libraries, and lists of rotations.
libraries	Diffraction, structure and vector libraries.
pattern	Addition of noise to patterns.
sims	Diffraction simulations.
structure_factor	Calculation of scattering factors and structure factors.
