Problem with running FEFF in Artemis
by Jatinkumar Rana 15 Apr '11

15 Apr '11

Dear Ifeffit users, I am facing a strange problem in running ATOMS for the "F d-3 m" space group. It gives me following message : "F d -3 m" appears in the International Tables with multiple choices of origin. If the atoms list seems wrong, you should use a shift vector of: -0.125, -0.125, -0.125 After i add shift vector on ATOMS page and run FEFF in ARTEMIS, it gives me error and shows that many pairs of atoms are close together. The crystallographic data used to run FEFF were obtained using Neutron diffraction experiments. I do not understand the reason for this since i have never come across such a problem. Can anyone help me to comeout of this problem ? I have attached the Artemis project file with this mail for further detail.

Re: [Ifeffit] Strategy to obtain cofigurationally averaged EXAFS from MD simulations
by Francisco Garcia 13 Apr '11

13 Apr '11

Dear Anatoly, Thank you very much for your reply. Unfortunately, your PRB references did not solve my problems. I am trying to reproduce the results of Cauet et al [J. Chem. Phys. 132, 194502 (2010)]. I basically have over 500 snapshots of a single Zn2+ ion (absorbing atom) in water (O atoms are the scattering atoms). I have the feff.inp file for each snapshot ready for Artemis. I basically want an efficient way to obtain the chi(k) of data for each snapshot and average the chi(k) as opposed to loading the feff.inp files one by one. Specifically a sample script/example will be of imense help. I could not find much information in the Artemis user manual. I must also state that I am an EXAFS novice so a step by step explanation will help me a lot. Thank you very much.

Question about FEFF6
by goodhei8＠gmail.com 12 Apr '11

12 Apr '11

Dear IFEFFIT Members, I have a strange problem with FEFF calculation. I am not sure if I made some mistakes in FEFF of input file, or FEFF did not handle it well. For Oxygen paths calculated with FEFF in Artemis by 3 input files, the results for O are supposed to be close, but I got a big difference, when I transform them into r space(k 2.5~10,kweight=2 in attachment). There are three input files for FEFF: #1, 6O only on xyz axis #2, + 1P besides 6O #3, + 6P besides 6O For O, #2 and #3 are close(almost same), but #1 is much bigger. (It would make sense to me if #1 #2 are close.) Thank a lot. Best, Jack Song

Strategy to obtain cofigurationally averaged EXAFS from MD simulations
by Francisco Garcia 12 Apr '11

12 Apr '11

Dear users, I want to compute the “average EXAFS spectra” usin 500 snapshots of atomic coordinates from my MD simulations. The idea is to compute the EXAFS spectra for each snapshot and then average the spectra over all snapshots (the so-called "MD EXAFS" approach). I know how to use Artemis to generate the EXAFS spectrum of a single snapshot. However, generating the EXAFS data for each of the 500 snapshots individually will be too time consuming and messy (this is essentially a book-keeping approach). I was wondering if there is a time-saving strategy/script for computing the average EXAFS instead of the snapshot-by-snapshot approach. For example, is it possible to include the coordinates of all the snapshots in a single feff.inp file and feed it to Artemis? Or if I have the feff.inp file for each snapshot, is it possible to write a script for Artemis that will compute each EXAFS spectra individually and dump them in a specified directory? Thank you very much.

XAS/XPS postdoc position at The University of Manchester
by Sven Schroeder 12 Apr '11

12 Apr '11

Dear all I would be grateful if you could bring this XAS/XPS post to the attention of suitable candidates. The post has been funded for 30 months and is available from 1 June 2011. Follow this link: http://www.manchester.ac.uk/aboutus/jobs/vacancies/research/vacancy/?ref=12… Research Associate (fixed term): Experimental and Computational Soft X-ray Spectroscopy (NEXAFS, XPS) of Corrosion Inhibition with Organic Molecules School of Chemical Engineering and Analytical Science, The University of Manchester Closing date: 06/05/2011 We are seeking to employ a Research Associate within the School of Chemical Engineering and Analytical Science (CEAS) on a full-time basis. The post is fixed-term for a period of 30 months commencing 1st June 2011. This post requires a PhD or equivalent in a relevant discipline (not limited to Physics or Chemistry) based on research in fundamental surface science or catalysis using ultra-high vacuum techniques. Experience with using ab initio soft X-ray spectroscopy data analysis packages such as StoBe, FEFF, CASTEP or similar methods is required. The project focuses on fundamental physicochemical studies of model surface systems in an industrially led project that involves organic chemists, computational chemists and chemical engineers at the Mexican Petroleum Institute (IMP). As such it requires a candidate with the ability to work both on their own initiative as well as a part of teams of varying size, and an ability to travel globally and regularly. Candidates should have an interest in working across the boundary between fundamental academic science and its practical application. Relevant peer-reviewed publications and experience in writing manuscripts for academic journal publications are essential. The candidate will take the lead in analysing the spectroscopic results through a combination of molecular modelling and calculations of core level shifts as well as associated X-ray absorption spectra. He/she will also be responsible for producing reports and presentations, and taking the lead in writing manuscripts for publications. On a day to day basis he/she will liaise directly with relevant contacts at IMP and within the University. Previous experience of operating NEXAFS and XPS equipment on a day to day basis, including minor repairs and vacuum management, would be an advantage. This work will include examination of these corrosion inhibitor/surface systems in simulated real-world environments, using equipment accessible at synchrotron radiation sources in the US and in Europe. The successful candidate will be integrated in the Manchester team, together with another project scientist and the Manchester investigators. He/she will contribute to applications for synchrotron radiation access and logistic coordinating of synchrotron radiation (SR) experiments and act as team leader during SR beamtimes. He/she will also carry out (or supervise) supporting measurements with home laboratory techniques (for example XRD, FTIR, electron microscopies, electrochemical techniques etc). The project requires quarterly reporting and presentations both in project meetings with the industrial partner and at academic conferences. Liaison with relevant contacts at the Mexican partner institute and participation in consortium project meetings twice a year will be required. The post is fixed-term for 30 months, available from 1st June 2011. -- Dr Sven L.M.

That's the problem. > Regards, > Guoqiang Hmmm...... so it seems not to be linking with libpgplot.a. Odd. I notice on my computer that the pgplot library is called libpgplot_iff.a and that the Makefile in src/lib/ has this line: PGPLOT_LIBS = -L/usr/local/share/ifeffit/pgplot -lpgplot_iff -lpng -lz -lX11 I also see that Matt's PGPLOT_install script changes one of pgplot's files to use the installation location specified in PGPLOT_install as default location (i.e. the one that would be specified by setting the PGPLOT_DIR environment variable). The script then renames the library to have the "_iff". There are a number of ways to address. Here is one relatively simple suggestion: 1. cd to the location of libpgplot.a on your computer 2. make a symbolic link to libpgplot.a like so: ln -s libpgplot.a libpgplot_iff.a 3. set the PGPLOT_DIR environment variable to the directory containing libpgplot.a. This can be done either typing export PGPLOT_DIR=/location/of/pgplot at the commend line or putting it in a login script to make it permanent. (Of course, replace /location/of/pgplot with the correct thing on your computer.) 4. cd back to the location of the ifeffit source and try again to build it. All that is, of course, untested on my end. But I think it should work. If not, we'll keep trying until we figure it out!

Installation Artemis, athena in Fedora 14
by Guoqiang PAN 08 Apr '11

08 Apr '11

Hi,all Main trouble for the installation Artemis, athena etc. in PC Linux system (in my case is Fedora 14 ) is need to install all perl pre-requisites from CPAN. Following the install instruction I did as follows: perl -MCPAN -e 'install Bundle::XasPerlBundle' But it stopped at 'DAGOLDEN': Warning: Prerequisite 'Module::Metadata => 1.000002' for 'DAGOLDEN/Module-Build-0.3800.tar.gz' failed when processing 'DAGOLDEN/Module-Metadata-1.000004.tar.gz' with 'make_test => NO'. Continuing, but chances to succeed are limited. Warning: Prerequisite 'CPAN::Meta => 2.110420' for 'DAGOLDEN/Module-Build-0.3800.tar.gz' failed when processing 'DAGOLDEN/CPAN-Meta-2.110930.tar.gz' with 'make_test => NO'. Continuing, but chances to succeed are limited. Warning: Prerequisite 'ExtUtils::CBuilder => 0.27' for 'DAGOLDEN/Module-Build-0.3800.tar.gz' already built but the result looks suspicious. Skipping another build attempt, to prevent looping endlessly.
