Analyzing diffraction pattern with ImageJ

Click For Summary
The discussion focuses on using ImageJ to analyze diffraction patterns from Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) images, specifically to determine the camera length necessary for calculating lattice parameters. The user seeks guidance on extracting the camera length from a .dm3 file using ImageJ, referencing the instruction to use "Ctrl+I" for this purpose. Another participant expresses a similar issue and requests information on how to obtain the camera length. The thread highlights the need for clarity on utilizing ImageJ's features for effective analysis of TEM data. The conversation underscores the importance of understanding the software's capabilities in scientific image analysis.

Hey!

I have a very unusual question. It is about using ImageJ to analyze diffraction patterns from TEM.

1. Homework Statement
To calculate lattice parameter I need Miller Indices from planes I can recognize in the picture, wavelength of electrons and camera length. In our instructions for this experiment stays that I can get camera length using "Ctrl+I" in ImageJ. File's description should contain this information.

2. Information readed from the dm3 file

hey,

Did you get the answer for this?
I'm currently got the same problem as you.
Could you please provide the information on how to get the camera length?

Best regards
 

Thread 'Distance between a Clock's hands when the distance is increasing most rapidly'

Question: A clock's minute hand has length 4 and its hour hand has length 3. What is the distance between the tips at the moment when it is increasing most rapidly?(Putnam Exam Question) Answer: Making assumption that both the hands moves at constant angular velocities, the answer is ## \sqrt{7} .## But don't you think this assumption is somewhat doubtful and wrong?
