Reading individual data columns with ifeffit
by Matthew Ginder-Vogel 04 Apr '08

04 Apr '08

Hello all, When reading data files using the read_data command in ifeffit is there a way to specify which columns of data will be read? I have very long data files and run into array size problems when I try and read the entire file. However, if I could read only columns 1, 2, and 3 rather than all 5 data columns I think my problem would be solved. I think narray may be the command to use, but I'm not sure how to implement it and couldn't find anything in the ifeffit manual. Thanks!

It was a saturation of the I_t current amplifier. Another sign of that is too sharp a rise of the edge right after the pre-edge - it is when the I_t signal drops below the saturation limit. A comment: the last time NSLS had 20h of stored beam lifetime was in the 20th century, I think, but it is besides the point.

As the ring current decays, I0 goes down while It is fixed below the edge, so ln(I0/It) decreases as observed. With this explanation, and noting that ln(I0/It) decreased by about 0.05 in an hour, I infer that the stored-beam lifetime is ~20hr. mam ----- Original Message ----- From: Anatoly Frenkel <mailto:frenkel@bnl.gov> To: anatoly.frenkel(a)yu.edu ; 'XAFS Analysis using <mailto:ifeffit@millenia.cars.aps.anl.gov> Ifeffit' Sent: Thursday, April 03, 2008 6:13 PM Subject: [Ifeffit] Brainteaser Attached is a brainteaser which I think is cute.

saving a window function in Athena/Artemis
by van der Veen Renske 27 Mar '08

27 Mar '08

Hi! Could anyone tell me whether it is possible to save a specific window function together with the data in either Athena or Artemis? Another general question: how can I easily search for specific key words in the archive folders of the mailing list (without going through them individually)? Thanks & happy new year to you all!

X-ray absorption measurements for Fluorescence detection.
by 沛昌蔡 24 Mar '08

24 Mar '08

Dear Authors: The Athena, Artemis fitting programs is suitable for X-ray absorption measurements for Fluorescence detection mode? Because transmission have different physical describing with Fluorescence mode. Or maybe you have more descriptions about Fluorescense detection mode fitting about X-ray absorption measurement? Thanks for your time and help! Pei ___________________________________________________________________ 付費才容量無上限？Yahoo!奇摩電子信箱2.0免費給你，信件永遠不必刪！ - 馬上體驗！

Re: [Ifeffit] about TkAtoms
by Bruce Ravel 17 Mar '08

17 Mar '08

Yordy, I am CCing my answer to the Ifeffit mailing list, which is the most appropriate place for this sort of thing. > 1.I would like to know why the TkAtoms software is not in the installation > last versions of IFFEFIT packages or maybe I dont find or dont know how to > do it? I would like to know is there is any way to download a package with > TkAtoms included in it to install in WindowsXP? See question 5 on this page of the Ifeffit FAQ: http://cars9.uchicago.edu/iffwiki/FAQ/RunningFeff > 2. Is there any software to transform .cif files to .inp files? I think this question is answered above as well. Both Artemis and the command line version of Atoms read a CIF file and convert to a feff.inp file. In Artemis, use the normal "open file" dialog and select a CIF file. If it is a properly structured CIF file, Artemis will recognize it as such and do the right thing with it. Go ahead and post questions on the mailing list if you have any further problems.

switching to FEFF8 in Artemis
by Matthew Marcus 11 Mar '08

11 Mar '08

I have FEFF8 and would like to get Artemis to use it for EXAFS calculations. I figured out how to use the Edit Preferences menu to point Artemis to the executable and how to get the ATOMS module to use the FEFF8_EXAFS template to generate feff.inp files which result in the generation of feffNNNN.dat files. What doesn't work is that QFS still uses the feff6 template. Without doing something nasty like overwriting the feff6 template with a copy of the feff8 template, how can I get the whole system to work with feff8? Also, I found that when simulating Pu3Ga (a simple Cu3Au structure) out to 10A, feff8 chucked up an error about too many paths, while feff6 did it happily. Is there a way to fix that? How much difference does using feff8 make in terms of proper description of MS paths for k>2, anyway? Do I really win by going through the trouble? mam
