dials.integrate

Introduction

This program is used to integrate the reflections on the diffraction images. It is called with an experiment list outputted from dials.index or dials.refine and a corresponding set of strong spots from which a profile model is calculated. The program will output a set of integrated reflections and an experiment list with additional profile model data. The data can be reintegrated using the same profile model by inputting this integrated.expt file back into dials.integate.

Examples:

dials.integrate models.expt refined.refl

dials.integrate models.expt refined.refl output.reflections=integrated.refl

dials.integrate models.expt refined.refl profile.fitting=False

dials.integrate models.expt refined.refl background.algorithm=glm
