Synopsis
Return the photon energy corresponding to a given grating dispersion (GAC) value.
Syntax
Double_Type pix_get_energy( Double_Type x, Double_Type y )
Description
Calculates the photon energy, in keV, for a given grating position and using the current pixlib settings. The x
and y values are in the GAC coordinate system, and so represent the grating dispersion and cross−dispersion
angles in degrees. The grating order − as set by pix_set_grating() − must be non−zero for this routine to work.
The pix_get_grating_wavelength() routine can be used to find the wavelength of the photon instead of the
energy.
Bugs
See the bugs page for the pixlib library on the CIAO website for an up−to−date listing of known bugs.
