Problem installing Demeter
by Amy Shober 30 May '26

30 May '26

Hi all, I had to have my IT folks completely wipe my computer. They updated me to Windows 11 enterprise edition. I previously had Demeter installed so that I could use Athena. We were able to download the Demeter Version 0.9.26 installation package. However, it did not actually install the programs on my computer. And in the folder DemeterPerl, the only application I can launch is "unisn000". I see an icon for Demeter (ICO file) but when I click it, I only see a little thumbnail image. I'm guessing this is an icon file. Can someone help? Amy -- Amy L.

Query: abnormal FT-EXAFS peak at ~1.1A
by Huaming 24 Dec '25

24 Dec '25

Hello! I faced an issue with fitting of FT-EXAFS data (Rh@zeolite) with Artemis. There is one distinct peak located at ~1.1 angstron. The intensity is comparable to the nearby peak of Rh-O scattering. I wonder the peak (~1.1A) is a real peak or just noise. Raw data is enclosed. Another question is why S02 can be negative in data fitting with Artemis. Cheers, Huaming

Strange low-r peak in Pt foil EXAFS
by FAN Dongxiao 03 Nov '25

03 Nov '25

Dear All, My target is the L3-edge of Pt foil and Pt-contained high-entropy alloy. In the Pt foil L-edge FT-EXAFS (k range: 3-20 A-1), there is a strange peak lower than the first near neighboring peak. This low-r peak makes confused because I did not found in other metal foil spectra. Also this peak cannot be reduced by increasing the Rbkg value. When I decrease the k range, this strange peak disappears with phase shift. In the Pt-contained high-entropy alloy, this strange peak becomes more pronounced than the 1st NN. Can anyone can give me help interpret this strange peak? Best regards, Fan ******************* JASRI, Sping8 *******************
