Welcome to RUMP - the RBS plotting, analysis and simulation package. If this is
your first visit, stop by the welcome page
for a quick introduction to the package, some of its history, distribution
notes, and a few real book references.
| Command References | |
| General Concepts | General concepts and definitions (buffers, etc.) Relationship of RUMP, SIM and PERT Specifying elements, thicknesses |
| RUMP | Basic file and spectra reading and manipulation Plotting, overlaying and RBS specific annotation Simple (usually RBS only) analysis commands |
| SIM | Sample definition and simulation setup commands. Commands to define layers and thickness of a model sample Reading and saving sample description files. |
| PERT | Semi-automatic refinement of a simulation. Defines error/normalization windows Specify parameters to modify in search |
| Configuration Commands | Configuration and loading/modification of optional features Examine stopping powers and load exception tables Load and examine resonance cross-section files. |
As you become more familiar with RUMP, it may eventually be necessary to delve into some of the internals to
configure the program for your particular analysis needs. The following appendices describe some of the specific data
files that can be created to interact with RUMP.
| Appendices | |
| *.RBS | Specification of the binary data file format for RBS spectra. This extensible key-based file format speeds storage and retrieval of spectra and their associated parameters. |
| *.ADT | Resonance and non-Rutherford scattering cross-sections handling. Arbitrary scattering cross-sections can be handled by providing a data file containing a list of energies and corresponding cross-sections. |
| *.STP | Stopping powers and stopping exception files. Although RUMP will generate stopping power tables on the fly, exception files provide a way to scale or modify the Ziegler based stopping powers. |
