| .. note:: | ||
| `factor` should correct the different neutron flux | ||
| between the sample and the background. | ||
| For example, if the open beam(background) image | ||
| is taken with longer exposure time | ||
| than the sample image with the same neutron rate, | ||
| the scale factor should be larger than 1. | ||
| The scale factor could be derived from the exposure time, | ||
| proton charge or monitor counts depending on the experiment. | ||

I wonder why the sample and background images don't get normalized first, so the scale factor is avoided?

You can do that. It was easier this way to replace the scale factor by hand if needed.
