Output diagnostic plots describing the experimental amplitudes (Ad1D, green), the fit CTF (CTFfit1D, orange) and goodness of fit (CCfit, blue) for micrograph #1 of set #7 of the CTF challenge. For this micrograph, the final estimates were Δf1=29070 Å, Δf2=28313Å and αast = 56.5°. The highest resolution at which Thon rings were deemed to be modeled correctly was 6.5 Å. The experimental amplitude profile (green) is normalized such that: the minima of the oscillations are set to 0.0; the second peak of the power spectrum (in this case at around 0.04) is 0.95; the maxima of oscillations are further normalized to 0.1 if their maxima would be <0.1 otherwise. Because of aliasing, one does not observe zeroes in CTFfit1D. One would normally solve this by increasing Nd, but we restricted ourselves to previously-used parameter values for this experiment (see caption to Table 3 for more details).
