| contents | Small-angle scattering (SAS) is a key experimental technique for analyzing nano-scale structures in various materials.In SAS data analysis, selecting an appropriate mathematical model for the scattering intensity is critical, as it generates a hypothesis of the structure of the experimental sample. Traditional model selection methods either rely on qualitative approaches or are prone to overfitting.This paper introduces an analytical method that applies Bayesian model selection to SAS measurement data, enabling a quantitative evaluation of the validity of mathematical models.We assess the performance of our method through numerical experiments using artificial data for multicomponent spherical materials, demonstrating that our proposed method analysis approach yields highly accurate and interpretable results.We also discuss the ability of our method to analyze a range of mixing ratios and particle size ratios for mixed components, along with its precision in model evaluation by the degree of fitting.Our proposed method effectively facilitates quantitative analysis of nano-scale sample structures in SAS, which has traditionally been challenging, and is expected to significantly contribute to advancements in a wide range of fields. |
