Powder-averaging the spectra

The third and last step in the calculation of the powder pattern is the averaging of the spectra with the same value of

. This is done by restarting module powdermagnon by:

powdermagnon -r results
mcdisp.qei 0.5 30 0.2

meaning take results from file results
mcdisp.qei and average the spectra. Output is printed to the console (STDOUT) and can be piped to a file in order to print it with displaycontour. An example is given in fig. 18 and 19. Parameters in the above command are:

0.5 ....Emin [meV] minimal energy
30 ....Emax [meV] maximal energy
0.2....deltaE [meV] energy step width
