The pyFAI package has been designed to reduce X-ray diffraction images into powder diffraction curves to be further processed by scientists. This contribution describes how to convert an image into a radial profile using the Numpy package, how the process was accelerated using Cython. The algorithm was parallelised, needing a complete re-design to benefit from massively parallel devices like graphical processing units or accelerators like the Intel Xeon Phi using the PyOpenCL library.

  1. Application of signal separation to diffraction image compression and serial crystallography

    cond-mat.mtrl-sci 2024-11 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Iterative sigma-clipping in azimuthal rings separates amorphous background from Bragg peaks, enabling real-time lossy compression and peak-picking for serial crystallography.
