In single-particle imaging (SPI) experiments, diffraction patterns of identical particles are recorded. The particles are injected into the X-ray free-electron laser (XFEL) beam in random orientations. The crucial step of the data processing of SPI is finding the orientations of the recorded diffraction patterns in reciprocal space and reconstructing the 3D intensity distribution. Here, two orientation methods are compared: the expansion maximization compression (EMC) algorithm and the correlation maximization (CM) algorithm. To investigate the efficiency, reliability and accuracy of the methods at various XFEL pulse fluences, simulated diffraction patterns of biological molecules are used.

Single-particle imaging with X-ray free-electron lasers (XFELs) has the potential to provide structural information at atomic resolution for non-crystalline biomolecules. This potential exists because ultra-short intense pulses can produce interpretable diffraction data notwithstanding radiation damage. This paper explores the impact of pulse duration on the interpretability of diffraction data using comprehensive and realistic simulations of an imaging experiment at the European X-ray Free-Electron Laser. It is found that the optimal pulse duration for molecules with a few thousand atoms at 5 keV lies between 3 and 9 fs.
