jac2dat converts .jac files to various data formats.
- JAC file: The gamma spectra format of the Science and Technology Agency,
(now the MEXT) Japan. For details, refer to the catalogue of
DS-P1001 Gamma Station, SII.
A .jac file consists of only one column, in which
gamma counts are stored in ascending order of channels.
The first three records are "not" gamma counts, and
are used for special purposes:
- Record 1: Live time (duration)
- Record 2: Real time (duration)
- Record 3: Acquired time - DAT file: A plottable text file converted from a .jac file.
A .dat file consists of multiple columns, in which
channels, gamma energies, peak FWHMs, peak efficiencies,
counts, count per second (cps), gammas, and
gamma per second (gps) are stored. - Other data formats include tex, csv, xlsx, json, and yaml.
