Molecule_2state ComponentA sample model for pump probe experiments which models disordered molecules in a volume (rectangular, cylindrical, or spherical). Molecules can be in one of two states (0 and 1). Scattering is either specified through F vs. q scattering curves or as a set of atom positions from which F vs. q is computed. At t=-delta_t, a fraction of the molecules are put in state 1, from which they decay exponentially, with time constant t_relax, into state 0. For t<-delta_t all of the molecules are in the state specified by initial_state. To improve statistics, scattering may be limited to a "forward" cone with opening angle in [psimin, psimax]. Furthermore, scattering may be restricted to the azimuthal segment between [etamin,etamax]. Example: Molecule_2state( nq=512,state_0_file="Fe_bpy_GS_DFT.txt",state_1_file="Fe_bpy_ES_DFT.txt",radius=0.01, psimin=0, psimax=15*DEG2RAD, etamin=-1*DEG2RAD,etamax=1*DEG2RAD, t_relax=600e-12, delta_t=100e-9, excitation_yield=0.2)
