.SH DESCRIPTION
\fBpartialator\fR merges reflections by scaling and post refinement, accounting
for the partialities of the reflections.  That means that it models the geometry
of diffraction for each pattern (crystal orientation, unit cell parameters,
X-ray bandwidth and so on) and attempts to optimise the geometrical parameters
to make the fully integrated intensities calculated using the model agree as
closely as possible between the many patterns.
.PP
This program is \fIexperimental\fR in this version of CrystFEL.  It is not yet
considered ready for processing experimental data.

.SH OPTIONS
.PD 0
.IP "\fB-i\fR \fIfilename\fR"
.IP \fB--input=\fR\fIfilename\fR
.PD
Give the name of the input stream.

.PD 0
.IP "\fB-o\fR \fIfilename\fR"
.IP \fB--output=\fR\fIfilename\fR
.PD
Give the name of the output file.  The default is
\fB--output=partialator.hkl\fR.

.PD 0
.IP "\fB-y\fR \fIpointgroup\fR"
.IP \fB--symmetry=\fR\fIpointgroup\fR
.PD
Merge according to symmetry \fIpointgroup\fR.

.PD 0
.IP "\fB-n\fR \fIn\fR"
.IP \fB--iterations=\fR\fIn\fR
.PD
Run \fIn\fR cycles of scaling and post refinement.

.PD 0
.IP \fB--no-scale\fR
.PD
Fix all the overall scaling factors to be unity.

.PD 0
.IP "\fB-m\fR \fImodel\fR"
.IP \fB--model=\fR\fImodel\fR
.PD
Specify the partiality model.  See the list below for possible choices.

.PD 0
.IP "\fB-j\fR \fIn\fR"
.PD
Run \fIn\fR analyses in parallel.

.PD 0
.IP \fB--no-polarisation\fR
.PD
Disable the polarisation correction.

.PD 0
.IP \fB--max-adu=\fR\fIn\fR
.PD
Include reflections only if their peak values were less than \fIn\fR.  That means, \fIn\fR is the saturation value of the detector.  The default is infinity, i.e. no cutoff.

.PD 0
.IP \fB--min-measurements=\fR\fIn\fR
.PD
Include a reflection in the output only if it appears at least least \fIn\fR times.  The default is \fB--min-measurements=2\fR.

.SH PARTIALITY MODELS

The available partiality models are:

.IP \fBsphere\fR
.PD
The volume of intersection between a sphere centered on each reciprocal lattice
point, and the part of reciprocal space excited by the Ewald sphere taking into
account the finite bandwidth and convergence angle.  A Lorentz factor will also
be used, proportional to the distance between the limiting Ewald spheres.

For a full description including diagrams, see T. A. White et al., Acta Cryst.
D69 (2013) p1231-1240.

.IP \fBunity\fR
.PD
Fix all partialities at 1, and use no Lorentz factor at all.



.SH BUGS
This program is \fIexperimental\fR in this version of CrystFEL.  It is not
yet considered ready for processing experimental data.  Your pet kitten may
explode if you attempt to solve a structure using intensities calculated by this
program.
