Hi guys, Anyone know why Artemis don't work in IOS 10.10.3? I can use the Athenas and Hephaestus, but when I type artemis on Terminal screen, I see this message: _______________________________________________________ Evertons-MacBook-Pro:~ ebonturim$ artemis Can't locate Math/Round.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /opt/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.16.3/darwin-thread-multi-2level /opt/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.16.3 /opt/local/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.16.3/darwin-thread-multi-2level /opt/local/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.16.3 /opt/local/lib/perl5/5.16.3/darwin-thread-multi-2level /opt/local/lib/perl5/5.16.3 /opt/local/lib/perl5/site_perl /opt/local/lib/perl5/vendor_perl .) at /opt/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.16.3/darwin-thread-multi-2level/Demeter/ScatteringPath.pm line 44.

Hephaestus edge step calculation
by Guanghui Zhang 22 Jun '15

22 Jun '15

Hello, Bruce. Thanks very much for writing and keeping upgrading the amazing software. I was mainly doing homogeneous catalysis, so most of my samples were solution samples. I found that it was quite convienent to calculate the absoption length and edge step using the old version Hephaestus (ifeffit 1.2.11). Simply go to the Formulas tab, choose Molarity, type in the formula, molarity, and energy. The calculation results will show up after clicking the Compute button. For example, if I type in the Formula as Pt, molarity as 0.03 mol/L and Energy as 11564 eV (Pt L3 edge), the calculation results showed as follows: element number barns/atom cm^2/gm --------- ---------------------------------- Pt 1.000 63044.107 194.641 This weighs 195.090 amu. Absorbtion length = 0.878 cm at 11564.00 eV for a 0.03 molar sample. Unit edge step length at Pt L3 edge (11564.0 eV) is 15108.1 microns Remember that a molarity calculation only considers the absorption of the solute. The solvent also absorbs. The Elam database and the total cross-sections were used in the calculation. However, in the new version Hephaestus (Demeter 0.9.22, trial version 4, Windows 8 64 bit). It does not work. If I type the same informaiton, Pt, 0.03 mol/L, 11564 eV. The following results showed up. element number barns/atom cm^2/gm --------- ---------------------------------- Pt 1.000 63044.107 194.641 This weighs 195.090 amu. Absorption length = 0.0 micron at 11564 eV for a 0.03 molar sample. Unit edge step length at Pt L3 edge (11564.0 eV) is 0.0 microns Remember that a molarity calculation only considers the absorption of the solute. The solvent also absorbs. The Elam database and the full cross-sections were used in the calculation. If I do the calculation for the solid samples using "density" instead of "Molarity", the calculation worked fine. I am wondering if there is any problem with my softwar and/or laptop, or there is a missing function in the new version Hephaestus. Thanks Guanghui 2015-06-18

"Simple" question/s about fuzzy degeneracy
by Juan Manuel Conde Garrido 20 Jun '15

20 Jun '15

Hi everyone, I'm somewhat new to EXAFS and this is my first question for the Ifeffit mailing list (which is a great source of information by the way).I was reading the excellent paper: "Path degeneracy and EXAFS analysis of disordered materials" and I have a "simple" question to ask:How do I get from table 1 to table 2? Specifically, I think I know how to use fuzzy degeneracy in Artemis for the paths in one FEFF calculation, but in this case there are 3 sites for Ti, and that means 3 FEFF calculations (rigth?). So how do I use fuzzy degeneracy for paths from different FEFF calculations? And by the way, is it right if I imagine the material as having only 1 "fuzzy"/average site for Ti?

Questions on Correlated Debye in FEFF6
by Bennett, Doran (D) 19 Jun '15

19 Jun '15

Hi Everyone, I have just recently begun learning about EXAFS and running EXAFS simulations using FEFF6. I have a few very basic questions about the underlying calculations for the correlated Debye model implemented in FEFF6 (called by "DEBYE" keyword). For the questions below, I am assuming I input a single crystallographic structure and want the correlated Debye model to simulate the influence of a thermal distribution on the EXAFS spectrum. I would appreciate any insight you can give me into the questions below. I would also welcome any and all references for the original papers where that is appropriate. 1. Are the Debye-Waller factors calculated for each path individually? (It seems like they should be since the paths will have different levels of influence from the thermal distribution of atomic positions) 2. Assuming the DW factors are calculated path-by-path, is the magnitude of the DW factor determined by assuming the total path length R is the appropriate length to use for the correlation term in the Debye spectral density? It seems like it would not be reasonable to treat all paths of the same R as having the same Debye-Waller factor since a single scattering path and multiple scattering paths are perturbed by a different set of relative atomic motion that are likely to have different correlations. I couldn't locate a clear statement about how this calculations is actually done within the code. 3. Is the C1 shift that results from the vibrational motion normal to the bond axis along a path incorporated in the calculation? (Presumably using \Delta C1 = sigma_perp^2/(2<r>)) And is this formula still appropriate in multiple-scattering paths? 4. Assuming the C1 shift is incorporated, does the correlated Debye model assume that the perpendicular and parallel displacements have the same spectral density? Thank you for the assistance!

Dear all, It's true and precise your remark Fred. With Demeter 9.21, the Feff 8.2 is running properly in Demeter Atoms or well in Artemis, but at the moment to get the paths they are not present. But if you right click with the mouse, you can READ the geometry for the paths but with a error message : Demeter:UI:Artemi Error Couldn't retrieve information about list control item -1 ... from my eyes it seems to be something related with Demeter's pathfinder but I'm not an expert Anyway, also thanks Guanghui for your comments that help us to understand where is coming from this problematic.

new build of the Demeter installer for Windows
by Bruce Ravel 10 Jun '15

10 Jun '15

Hi all, I have made quite a few changes to my analysis software in recent weeks in response to comments on the mailing list. I think that everything from recent weeks is in the latest build in some form. I am not quite ready to declare this a proper release with a new version number, so it can be found at http://bruceravel.github.io/demeter/#windows as "Pre-release trial version #4". Among other things, this corrects the recent deglitching problem, adds support for linear polarization in the Feff calculation, and attempts to streamline the plotting of a sum of paths (see the top of the Actions menu in the data window). I would be grateful if the two people who recently asked about polarization (Shaoib Muhammad and Anna Wolska) could try Artemis and let me know if you think it is working correctly. I have done quite a bit of testing, but one never knows.... I am not 100% confident that everything is implemented quite right. I could easily have missed something... See the change log at https://github.com/bruceravel/demeter/blob/master/Changes.org for the changes that are in this trial version.

how to manage Demeter with a newer FEFF version ?
by fred.mosselmans＠diamond.ac.uk 10 Jun '15

10 Jun '15

Dear Janeth, Feff8.5L (and presumably 8.4) works in some fashion in Demeter version 18.2 , in later versions it doesnt. : It runs through atoms and gives fits that seems sensible for transuranic elements in the times I and some of my collaborators have used it. Thus in the short term if you want to use something higher than FEFF6 in your exafs calculations and want to use Demeter that's your option, If you need to use FeFF9 and want to use Demeter: I think your best option is to have a go at persuading some of the software guys at your facility to collaborate with Bruce and Matt in adding a FEFF9 option to larch and in turn then Demeter.

Janeth, As far as I know, Bruce is working on integraton of FEFF 8.5 into Demeter. I also experienced reviewers asking for newer version of FEFF in the data analysis. Below was a summary of our response. Feff 6 does not understand valence, and FEFF 8 uses a self-consistency loop to transfer charge between the atom types, resulting in something that can be related to formal valence in some situations. In the regime in which the EXAFS fit is evaluated, the photoelectron has large kinetic energy and is not particularly sensitive to the details of the potential surface. In almost all situations, FEFF 8 is a modest improvement at best over FEFF 6 for EXAFS analysis. There are some demonstrated cases where FEFF 8 is slightly better than FEFF 6 at modeling EXAFS. The most notable cases are when H is in the input file – FEFF 6 is terrible at this. I got those information from previous discussion on the Ifeffit, see: http://www.mail-archive.com/ifeffit%40millenia.cars.aps.anl.gov/msg03381.ht… I am not an expert, and I hope someone can help correct me if I am wrong.
