Vaughan ======= .. toctree:: :maxdepth: 4 :hidden: Presentation ------------ This is the most basic Vaughan model, as defined in original Vaughan paper :cite:`Vaughan1989,Vaughan1993`. It gives the |TEEY|, and takes the incidence angle of |PEs| into account. Input files ----------- You must provide measured |TEEY| at normal incidence. +-----------------------------+---------------+-----------------------------+---------------------------+ | |Emission Yield |Emission energy distribution |Emission angle distribution| +=============================+===============+=============================+===========================+ | "True" secondaries | ❌ | ❌ | ❌ | +-----------------------------+---------------+-----------------------------+---------------------------+ | Elastically backscattered | ❌ | ❌ | ❌ | +-----------------------------+---------------+-----------------------------+---------------------------+ | Inelastically backscattered | ❌ | ❌ | ❌ | +-----------------------------+---------------+-----------------------------+---------------------------+ | Total | ✅ | ❌ | ❌ | +-----------------------------+---------------+-----------------------------+---------------------------+ Definitions ----------- The |TEEY| is given by: .. math:: \sigma(E, \theta) &= \sigma_\mathrm{max}(\theta) \times (\xi \mathrm{e}^{1-\xi} )^k \mathrm{\quad if~} \xi \leq 3.6 \\ &= \sigma_\mathrm{max}(\theta) \times \frac{1.125}{\xi^{0.35}} \mathrm{\quad if~} \xi > 3.6 :math:`\xi` is defined by: .. math:: \xi = \frac{E - E_0}{E_\mathrm{max} - E_0} Under the limit :math:`E_0` (:math:`12.5\mathrm{\,eV}` by default), the |TEEY| is set to a unique value (:math:`0.5` by default). .. math:: \sigma_\mathrm{max}(\theta) = \sigma_\mathrm{max}(\theta = 0^\circ) \times \frac{1}{k_s\theta^2/\pi} E_\mathrm{max}(\theta) = E_\mathrm{max}(\theta = 0^\circ) \times \frac{1}{k_{se}\theta^2/\pi} The :math:`k_s` and :math:`k_{se}` are both set to unity by default. The factor :math:`k` is given by: .. math:: k &= 0.56 \mathrm{\quad if~} \xi \leq 1 \\ &= 0.25 \mathrm{\quad if~} 1< \xi \leq 3.6 \\ Model parameters ---------------- The parameters list is dynamically created here: :py:mod:`Vaughan API documentation<.vaughan>`. Implementations --------------- Two alternative implementations for Vaughan are implemented: `CST` and `SPARK3D`. GUI *** Select your implementation from the `Parameters` menu. API *** Instantiate your model with: .. code-block:: python model = Vaughan(implementation="CST") # or "SPARK3D" # alternative: model = Vaughan() model.set_implementation("CST") More specific documentation in :meth:`.vaughan.Vaughan.set_implementation`. Parameter Vaughan with :math:`E_{\mathrm{c,\,1}}` instead of :math:`E_0` ------------------------------------------------------------------------ When :math:`E_0` is unlocked, a fit over this variable is performed to match :math:`E_{\mathrm{c,\,1}}`. You must provide either a |TEEY| file path, either enter the other Vaughan parameters yourself (see image below), and click `Fit!`. .. image:: /manual/models/images/gui_fit_e0.png :target: vaughan.html :width: 600 :alt: How to fit E_0 :align: center To-do list ---------- .. todo:: - Unlock :math:`k_s`, :math:`k_{se}` to have better overall fit? In particular: if several incidence angles are provided. - In reality, SPARK3D implementation of Vaughan models |EBEEY| too! - Threshold energy in CST cannot be negative.
