NEEDLE ABSORB
4.15 - NEEDLE Absorption Correction
Synopsis
This provides a CAD4 specific correction suitable for cylindrical or needle
crystals, where the crystal is mounted along the spindle axis. It will be
useful for crystals where the needle axis is very much longer than the
X-ray beam width. A GUI is presented for further information and user input.
If direction cosines are present in the input reflection
file, these will be echoed to the output file.
