Hi All,
A major opportunity with Pilatus detectors is the chance to redistribute the
dose in reciprocal space i.e. measure a lot more data, with less dose / frame,
then decide in hindsight where
like during data collection.

Dear Pilatus/Radiation Damage Cognoscenti,
I read a few years ago, before the advent of Pilatus detectors,
that the best strategy was a sort of compromise between number

Dear Pilatus/Radiation Damage Cognoscenti,
I read a few years ago, before the advent of Pilatus detectors, that the best
strategy was a sort of compromise between number of images and detector readout
noise "overhead." I have heard that Pilatus detectors, however, have
essentially no readout no
