Spheres

These sphere data sets [B38] contains samples with varied volume fractions of borosilicate glass spheres encased in a polypropylene matrix [B5]. The sphere diameter is a gaussian distribution ranging from 38-45 µm. The samples were scanned at both 25 mm and 60 mm sample to detector distance with the experimental conditions reported in the table below:

To load the data sets and perform a basic reconstruction using tomopy

tomopy recon --file-name tomo_00058.h5 --rotation-axis 1427
tomopy recon --file-name tomo_00059.h5 --rotation-axis 1440
tomopy recon --file-name tomo_00060.h5 --rotation-axis 1337
tomopy recon --file-name tomo_00061.h5 --rotation-axis 1316.5
tomopy recon --file-name tomo_00062.h5 --rotation-axis 1359.5
tomopy recon --file-name tomo_00063.h5 --rotation-axis 1322,5

To enable phase retrieval un-comment the appropriate setting in tomopy_rec.py
