# Tutorials

Tutorials explain the Python interface of pyFAI and use the jupyter notebook interface, formerly known as ipython notebooks. The two first tutorials are an introduction to the usage of pyFAI from Python for diffraction data reduction. The subsequent tutorials are more in depth explanation and require a good Python fluency and to a certain extent, of the pyFAI library.

- Introduction to the tutorials
- Geometries in pyFAI
- Detector distortion corrections
- Selection of a calibrant
- Creation of a new calibrant
- Azimuthal averaging in log-scaled bins
- Multi-geometry azimuthal integration
- Creation of a calibrant file
- CCD calibration
- Calibration of the pixel position for a Pilatus detector
- Goniometer and translation table calibration
- Inpainting missing data
- Thick detectors
- Variance of SAXS data
- Integration of images in the SAXS appoximation:
- Integration of images with solid angle correction/polarization correction
- Introducing the next generation azimuthal integrator … pyFAI 0.16
- Azimuthal integration with pixel splitting
- Extracting ellipse parmeters from rings
- Using pyFAI with data from Synchrotron Soleil
