ess.uncertainty.variance_normalized_signal_over_monitor#

ess.uncertainty.variance_normalized_signal_over_monitor(numerator, denominator)#

Calculates the ratio of detector variance-normalized counts over monitor variance-normalized counts:

\[\alpha = \frac{\sum_{i} \text{var}_{i}(b) a_{i}^{2}}{\sum_{i} \text{var}_{i}(a) b_{i}^{2}}\]

where \(a\) is the numerator and \(b\) the denominator. See Heybrock et al. (2023) for more details.
