## Introduction

This repository presents an analysis of materials science data, specifically focusing on **diffraction results** and **spectrum analysis**. Using Python and associated libraries, such as NumPy and Matplotlib, the data is processed to draw insights into the structure and properties of various materials.

By the end of this repository, you will have explored:
- Diffraction data results showing mean values for materials analysis.
- Spectral analysis for multiple materials with different d-spacing values.
- A step-by-step Python-based workflow for analyzing diffraction and spectrum data.

## Diffraction Results

The diffraction data includes mean values and standard deviations for different data points, useful for analyzing material structures at an atomic level. The `diffraction_results.txt` file contains processed results showing variations in materials' diffraction patterns.

Example structure of diffraction data:
```
Mean Value: 5.8
Standard Deviation: 0.2
```

You can explore the full file here: [diffraction_results.txt](./diffraction_results.txt).

## Spectrum Analysis

The spectrum data files provide insights into the intensity counts at various d-spacing values. Each spectrum file corresponds to different measurements and materials. Below is a summary of some of the spectrum files:

- **spectrum_1.txt**: Initial spectrum data with very low counts and some peaks.
- **spectrum_10.txt** and **spectrum_10_2Ang.txt**: Spectrum data at 10° with higher counts for intensity.
- **spectrum_30.txt** and **spectrum_30_2Ang.txt**: Data for spectrum analysis at 30°, showing higher intensity at specific d-spacing values.

Example from `spectrum_1.txt`:
```
d-spacing Intensity (counts)
0.629774 7182.42
0.635733 7160.19
```
Explore the file here: [spectrum_1.txt](./spectrum_1.txt).

## Files in the Repository

- **`diffraction_results.txt`**: Contains diffraction results for analysis.
- **`output.txt`**: Contains mean values and data for various samples.
- **Spectrum Files**:
- `spectrum_1.txt`
- `spectrum_1_2Ang.txt`
- `spectrum_10.txt`
- `spectrum_10_2Ang.txt`
- `spectrum_20.txt`
- `spectrum_20_2Ang.txt`
- `spectrum_30.txt`
- `spectrum_30_2Ang.txt`

Each spectrum file includes intensity counts for different materials and conditions.
