R_FACTOR_SMOOTH

R_FACTOR_SMOOTH defines the number of times that experimental I(V) curves will be smoothed by 3-point smoothing during \(R\)-factor calculations, both after the reference calculation and during the search.

Default: 0

Allowed values: 0 or positive integer

Syntax:

R_FACTOR_SMOOTH = 4

It is recommended to smooth the experimental curves beforehand, such that smoothing during TensErLEED operation is not necessary. See the \(R\)-factor page for details.

If you do use smoothing through the R_FACTOR_SMOOTH parameter, check the experimental curves in the Rfactor_analysis.pdf file. This plots the curves after smoothing, as well as the Y-function used for calculating the \(R\) factor.
