Re-Installing Larch for Windows
by Daria Boglaienko 17 Nov '24

17 Nov '24

Hello, I'm sorry if I missed information related to troubleshooting of larch installation. My earlier larch version stopped loading and I uninstalled it in order to install the latest one. After doing that I can't find XAS viewer. No folder containing it was created after installation (unlike before). I went to “Scripts” in "xraylarch", found larch exe and many other exe files but they don’t load (open and crash). I uninstalled and installed it around 4 times. I also uninstalled anaconda and python for potential conflict, after that Larch installation went without errors, but still … the same issue. Please, let me know. Thank you in advance! Daria

Generating feff.inp from .cif file issues
by Anis Attiaoui 14 Nov '24

Dear Ifeffit Community, I am struggling to generate the feff.inp file using the following .cif file (attached). I am using py-Larch for this project. I tried using these 2 functions: from larch.xrd.cif2feff import cif2feffinp and from larch.xrd.structure2feff import structure2feffinp. For some reason both of them, they cannot seem to read the cif cluster file (attached). The snippet of the code I am using is : inp_file = cif2feffinp(cif_file, 'Sn', edge='K', absorber_site=1, version8=False) I am trying to generating inp_file using feff6. I keep getting the error output of inp_file: "# could not read CIF file". I am wondering if this is because the .cif file is bad or there is sthg else going on. Any suggestions will be tremendously helpful. Best regards, Dr. Anis Attiaoui, Stanford University, GLAM Dept.

XANES-Linear Combination Fitting (LCF) Au standard sample
by liyy15＠outlook.com 09 Nov '24

Hi, All I am recently learning to use XAS to characterize some Au mixture solution samples. I would like to study the chemical valence by XANES. Unfortunately, I have only gotten Au foil data. Could I use the standard data from literature like [AuCl4]-, [AuCl2]-, Au hydroxide etc? Best regards, Yu
