(a) Average of the uncertainties σ(Q) on over the full Q-range (500 radial bins) as a function of number of images averaged in the time bin centred at 4.5 ps. The uncertainties are estimated from the covariance matrix of the straight-line fit [equation (11)]. The dashed line shows that the magnitude of the uncertainties up to ∼50 averaged images follows the behaviour of counting noise expected for a Gaussian distribution (). (b) Number of different P2 values that are sampled as a function of number of azimuthal bins. This parameter is maximized if the number of azimuthal bins is odd. |
