Abstract

Abstract : In picosecond and slower pump–probe diffraction experiments the collection of response–ratio correlation sets prior to full data collection provides an invaluable confirmation of the existence of a light‐induced signal prior to full data collection. If a response to light exposure is observed, the quality of the data being collected can be assessed. Abstract : In picosecond and slower pump–probe diffraction experiments, collection of response–ratio correlation sets prior to full data collection provides an invaluable confirmation of the existence of a light‐induced signal prior to full data collection. If a response to light exposure is observed, the quality of the data being collected can be assessed. A number of such correlation plots both for synchrotron and in‐house pump–probe data collection are presented.
