Details

The analytic approximation (blue line) for calculation of Rg [1] is derived by the finite element method. In this Demonstration, experimental data (the red points) can be fitted manually by changing Rg, the distance , and the function scale. Alternatively, the experimental data can be automatically fitted by checking the "fit" checkbox.

Use the function scale to fit the experimental distance to the theoretical value. It is difficult to reach the value in an experiment so we need to use the function scale to detemine the expected experimental data.
