Supporting experimental data for "Z-average and Polydispersity Index of Dynamic Light Scattering" by Bazzoni et al.

Data (auto-correlation functions used for preparing Figure 5-8) accompanying manuscript "Z-average and Polydispersity Index of Dynamic Light Scattering" by Bazzoni et al. 1. “<strong>Figure 5_ACFs.zip</strong>” Large sets of autocorrelation functions (ASCII format) recorded to demonstrate heteroscedastic and angle-dependent uncertainties. Each file may list the basic parameters, instrument’s estimation of Z-average (not evaluated and not used by us), the auto-correlation function, and a low temporal-resolution trace of the scattering intensity. Figure 5 is based on the analyses of subsets of this data set. 2. “<strong>Figure 6 &amp; 7_ACFs.zip</strong>” Large sets of autocorrelation functions (ASCII format) recorded to demonstrate the impact of uncertainty on precision, and the impact of duration and photon counting rate on the signal-to noise ratio. Each file may list the basic parameters, instrument’s estimation of Z-average (not evaluated and not used by us), the auto-correlation function, and a low temporal-resolution trace of the scattering intensity. Figure 6 and 7 are based on the analyses of subsets of this data set. 3. “<strong>Figure 8_ACFs.zip</strong>” Large sets of autocorrelation functions (ASCII format) recorded to demonstrate the positive impact of data averaging on precisions. Each file may list the basic parameters, instrument’s estimation of Z-average (not evaluated and not used by us), the auto-correlation function, and a low temporal-resolution trace of the scattering intensity. Figure 8 is based on the analyses of subsets of this data set.
