PHS3000 Muon Physics¶
This documents the monashspa.PHS3000.muon
library that you will import into code used in the PHS3000 unit when performing experiment 1.4 muon physics.
- monashspa.PHS3000.muon.histc(x, bins)[source]¶
Counts the number of times an values in
x
fall between each bin inbins
.This uses the condition
if bins[i] <= x[j] < bins[i+1]: result[i] += 1
for each element inx
- Parameters:
x – The numpy array containing the data to count
bins – A numpy array defining the bins
- Returns:
A numpy array containing the number of elements between each bin.
- monashspa.PHS3000.muon.read_data(filepath)[source]¶
Imports data from the muon physics .data file
- Parameters:
filepath – The path to the .data file produced by the muon acquisition software
- Returns:
A 2D numpy array containing the data from the file. The first column contains the acquisition intervals and the second column contains the timestamps.
