Description#

This algorithm uses Equations of state for Lead (111) to calculate the pressure of a given sample. The required inputs are the dSpacing (A) of the Lead (111) Bragg peak and the reference temperature (K).

Optionally, a further input of Target pressure (GPa) can be given, which will find the corresponding dSpacing for the pressure at the provided reference temperature.

Usage#

Example:

from mantid.simpleapi import LeadPressureCalc

LeadPressureCalc(dSpacing=2.85, T=312, TargetPressure=0.0043)
