Hi List, It appears that changing the k-weight on my fit does improve the fit. I still have the problem of forcing the sO^2's on the two MS paths to be positive.

Commercial MoS2 fit

Hi List, I have tried a variety of different things to get this fit to work. It seems pretty decent now, although, for my two MS paths (4,5) I had to force the sO^2's to be positive. In the process one of them is now zero. My parameter 'amp' wants to be 0.5 so I had to set it to 0.7 because I know that it shouldn't be as low as 1/2. Changing the k-weight doesn't seem to help.

new versions of my codes
by Bruce Ravel 05 Nov '04

05 Nov '04

Hi! I just posted new source code tarballs of my codes at my web site and at SourceForge. A while back, there were some problems with a bug in the updater script for unix. If you have problems using the updater, either download and install the tarball by hand or grab the latest copy of the updater script and run it instead: http://leonardo.phys.washington.edu/~ravel/software/exafs/utilities/horae_u… The fixed updater script will be installed once you get the new tarball installed. An updater package for windows users will hopefully be available next week, assuming no serious bugs are found in the new codes. For Athena and Artemis, this is mostly a bug fix release, although a lot of bugs were fixed. Athena has one new feature, which is an indicator at the top of the list of data groups which tells you when your project has been modified and needs to be saved. Clicking on this indicator is the same as choosing "File->Save project". For those people following the development version of Artemis, along with a number of important bug fixes there are two major new features: 1. In the Fits menu, there is a menu item for saving a "full data" file. This file records the data, the fit, the residual, the background (if appropriate), and the window as columns in a single file. If chi(R) or chi(q) is saved, the FT parameters appropriate to the chosen fit are used for all the columns. 2. You can now revert your project to a previous fitting model by selecting that fit from the Data and Paths List and selecting the restore option from the Fits menu. Fit model restoration can also be done with the right-click menu on the list on the log viewer page. I'll be eager to hear how well this works for others. This is a pretty exciting release of the development version for me because I have now completed all the features I was planning to add in this round of development. I am going to take a break from adding major new features to Artemis for a while to give people a chance to find the bugs. I am also planning to release a windows executable of the development version within the next few weeks to allow some more people to try out all the new features. As always, let me know what problems you run into.

Hi Dan, Sigma2 can not be negative. It is the mean square displacement of the half path length. You can force it to be positive by using abs(ss) on the definition page for each path in the fit.

Fitting Commercial Molybdenum Disulfide
by dmc＠pdx.edu 04 Nov '04

Hi Mailing list, I'm back at fitting commercial Molybdenum Disulfide to a Hexagonal p 63/m m c space group. Although my present fit is reasonable, thanks to the mailing list in August, I was hoping someone might have more suggestions to optimize it. Also, in order to better my fit, I still have seperate e0's, one for the first path, one for the remaining 2 paths. I haven't gotten a satisfactory physical explanation for this and I thought someone might have a good one. Also, the data on the same sample from two different beamlines seems to be somewhat different, namely the Reduced chi-square is very different (75.6 in one, 636.4 in the other). In both cases I use the first 3 single scattering paths. I may have included too much info, but better too much than too little. Thank You, Dan Carter Here are my parameters in both cases, values differ somewhat: Set: Amp = 0.7 guess: eO ~ 1.57 (1.52) (used for first path) guess: eO_1 ~ -4.77 (2.43) (used for remaining 2 paths) guess: ss ~ 0.0027 (0.000427) guess: alpha ~ -0.004 (0.003255) (positive for second fit) delr_1: alpha*reff First Fit: Project title : Fitting merge 10_15_04.chi Comment : Prepared by : Contact : Started : 11:49:36 on 22 October, 2004 This fit at : 11:10:57 on 28 October, 2004 Environment : Artemis 0.7.010 using Windows 2000, perl 5.006001, Tk 800.024, and Ifeffit 1.2.6 ============================================================ Independent points = 14.312500000 Number of variables = 4.000000000 Chi-square = 779.303886008 Reduced Chi-square = 75.568861674 R-factor = 0.041210572 Measurement uncertainty (k) = 0.000827712 Measurement uncertainty (R) = 0.022111003 Number of data sets = 1.000000000 Guess parameters +/- uncertainties (initial guess): e0_1 = -4.7737110 +/- 2.4268840 (guessed as -4.773687 (2.426889)) ss = 0.0027360 +/- 0.0004270 (guessed as 0.002736 (0.000427)) e0 = 1.5684690 +/- 1.5209160 (guessed as 1.568507 (1.520918)) alpha = -0.0040060 +/- 0.0032550 (guessed as -0.004006 (0.003255)) Def parameters: delr_1 = -0.0158980 Set parameters: amp = 0.7 Correlations between variables: e0_1 and alpha --> 0.8622 e0 and alpha --> 0.7870 e0_1 and e0 --> 0.7064 All other correlations are below 0.25 Project title : Fitting merge 10_15_04.chi Comment : Prepared by : Contact : Started : 11:49:36 on 22 October, 2004 This fit at : 11:10:57 on 28 October, 2004 Environment : Artemis 0.7.010 using Windows 2000, perl 5.006001, Tk 800.024, and Ifeffit 1.2.6 ============================================================ Independent points = 14.312500000 Number of variables = 4.000000000 Chi-square = 779.303886008 Reduced Chi-square = 75.568861674 R-factor = 0.041210572 Measurement uncertainty (k) = 0.000827712 Measurement uncertainty (R) = 0.022111003 Number of data sets = 1.000000000 Guess parameters +/- uncertainties (initial guess): e0_1 = -4.7737110 +/- 2.4268840 (guessed as -4.773687 (2.426889)) ss = 0.0027360 +/- 0.0004270 (guessed as 0.002736 (0.000427)) e0 = 1.5684690 +/- 1.5209160 (guessed as 1.568507 (1.520918)) alpha = -0.0040060 +/- 0.0032550 (guessed as -0.004006 (0.003255)) Def parameters: delr_1 = -0.0158980 Set parameters: amp = 0.7 Correlations between variables: e0_1 and alpha --> 0.8622 e0 and alpha --> 0.7870 e0_1 and e0 --> 0.7064 All other correlations are below 0.25 ===== Data set >>merge 6_17_04.chi<< ======================================== file: C:\Ifeffit\horae\stash\artemis.project.3\chi_data\merge 6_17_04.chi title lines: Athena data file -- Athena version 0.8.032 Saving merge 6_17_04 (group=merge) as chi(k) .

IFEFFIT: Writing more than 16 arrays with write_data()

Hi Norbert, (Replying to the whole group this time....)

It would not be difficult, and the current limit is definitely too low. I think it's a two line fix. But there will still be a finite limit of number of arrays. So: is 100 arrays enough? Do you need a fixed source kit or dll? And how quickly? This doesn't seem like a full release change to me. I haven't made any source changes to the stable distribution since July. So a question for Bruce and everyone else: Are there any other bug reports or suggestions for changes to the core? --Matt

Problem exporting fit data with ARTEMIS
by Norbert Weiher 02 Nov '04

02 Nov '04

Dear Friends, I did a multi-dataset fit (9 data sets) and had the following problem: When trying to export all the fits to a single file (using save marked groups as), I got an empty file and artemis trapped a warning like the following. For sake of reproducing, I attached the file. My Tk version is the one which we should use (i.e. not the newest one) and saving just the experimental data in just the same fashion works... Any ideas why this happens?

Hi Matt, I did encounter that "No absorbing atom (ipot=0) defined" error sometimes, but I run Artemis only after I have feff calculations done. By the way, I use FEFF8. Thanks everybody for your kind help. I am afraid I can not do more test now since I am leaving tomorrow for Argonne for more XAFS experiments. Will check back if the problem remains after I have tried what you have suggested. Have a good weekend.

Re: [Ifeffit] choosing dk values
by Scott Calvin 01 Nov '04

01 Nov '04

Hi Mike, I would add to Matt's reply that it is sometimes quite important to realize that for a Hanning window and similar windows where there is a "sill" over which the window function goes from 0 to 1, the sill extends from kmin-dk/2 to kmin+dk/2 and from kmax-dk/2 to kmax+dk/2. This means that as you increase dk you actually sample more k-space, albeit in a suppressed way. Why is this important? Suppose you have something really screwy in your data at k=11.9 inverse angstroms...a second edge comes to mind as a possibility. You might then reasonably set kmax to 11 and think you're staying away from the problem. (Well, it might be messing up your background, but that's an issue for another day...) But suppose you make dk = 2. Now you are actually sampling data up to k = 12, which includes the really screwy bit. In some cases that can be a source of problems...it took me a long time to catch on to that particular wrinkle when I was starting out! Of course, with Artemis and Athena this is easy to catch, because you can plot the window function by checking the box marked "Window" (that Bruce is a clever dude). --Scott Calvin Sarah Lawrence College At 01:13 PM 11/1/2004 -0600, you wrote: >Hi Mike, > >On Mon, 1 Nov 2004, Michael A Groves wrote: > >> I'm doing some fitting with Artemis, and I noticed that, for >> different values of dk, I get better or worse fits.

choosing dk values
by Michael A Groves 01 Nov '04

01 Nov '04

Hi all, I'm doing some fitting with Artemis, and I noticed that, for different values of dk, I get better or worse fits. The only information I've gotten so far about dk was in the IFEFFIT documentation, and it basically said, "Don't mess with it." Can anyone give me more information on choosing a good dk value? Or, should I just stick with the default? Thanks, Mike Groves
