Transfer Iketa-Carpenter values in IRF into GEM_Definition

[Anders-Markvardsen]

At the bottom of this ticket see a copy of an IRF file for GEM. In this copy values are given for SIGMA and GAMMA.

I have so far assumed these are related to SigmaSquared and Gamma (as defined in http://www.mantidproject.org/IkedaCarpenterPV) as follows:

SigmaSquared = Sig-0 + d^2 * Sig-1 + d^4 * Sig-2
Gamma = Gam-0 + d * Gam-1 + d^2 * Gam-2

However no longer sure this is necessarily correct. To start
with the FullProf TOF-manual explaining peakshape NPROF=13, the IC peakshape function implemented here, that it is a convolution of IC + pseudo-Voigt. However pseudo-Voigt is defined with two parameter: H and a mixing parameter (see FullProf manual page 48), whereas NPROF=13 contain three extra parameters: SigmaSquared, Gamma and Eta!!! So there is an inconsistency here. A question is: "is it possible to estimate an Eta value from the IRF?".

Discuss this with instrument scientists.

An alternative approach to using the IRF, could be to work towards replicating in Mantid the steps needed to create an IRF in the first place.
