Wrapping Up

Having trouble with file size/type restrictions so I went with a dropbox folder for uploads. Contents include:

Final presentation

BESL2013 work
The 1-D analyses of step data and freecools for Cu_55-xZr₄₅Al_x, x = {7, 8, 9, 10, 12} generated over the summer are in their respective /BESL 2013/STL13XYZ folders on the hard drive. Here is a .zip of all the S(q) files used in the final analysis, performed using the following

S(q) analysis Matlab code
Contents of the .zip:

• S_peakfind.m is a function to determine peak information from S(q) .csv files
• S_q1_evol.m is a function to perform peak fits across temperatures and a linear fit on S(q1) for a single composition
• S_q1.m is the big-picture function to analyze across compositions and temperatures

Could run as follows: >> S_q1('/home/sussmanl/Data/', 3, 800, true, 1)
Parameter interpretation:

• n_sigma = 3 is the error multiplier for each S(q1) value, used to determine uncertainty in linear fits across temperatures
• T_min = 800 is the lower temperature cutoff for fits
• do_plot = true will plot the results, and
• file_out = 1 prints results to the console (otherwise prints to the file path specified).

Output will look like this:

Thanks again for a fantastic summer!
