Information content of lineshapes
Description
We examine the question of figures-of-merit for optimizing the lineshapes of neutron scattering sources, instruments and experiments. Using maximum entropy deconvolution of simulated data, we test the effects of various features of lineshapes including intensity, resolution (FWHM), shape, and background. We demonstrate that conventional figures-of-merit are of limited validity, and we suggest that bandwidth is an important criterion for optimization. (author)
