Issue with the Athena software - Athena Warning: redundant argument in sprintf
by Clarissa Baldo 15 Oct '19

15 Oct '19

Good Afternoon, I am a new user of the Athena software. I am trying to fit my XANES spectra using the linear combination fitting tools in Athena. However, every time I run the fitting I receive the following warning message: [cid:image002.png@01D58286.ED191450] Would you please give me some advice to solve this problem? I am using the latest version of the Demeter system (version 0.9.26) for windows. I have attached a copy of the warning log and a screenshot of the error. Thanks, Clarissa

trouble installing Demeter from source on Ubuntu 18.04
by Joseph Zsombor-Pindera 15 Oct '19

15 Oct '19

Dear mailing list members; I'm trying to build Demeter from source according to Bruce Ravel's guide (https://bruceravel.github.io/demeter/documents/SinglePage/installation.html) I have mostly been able to install the dependencies, but I had trouble with the libwxgtk packages, so I installed 3.1.0 according to these instructions: https://gist.github.com/abdulhalim-cu/f3ae4be0b45baabef5623ccdd20ca584. wx-config --version results in: 3.1.0, so I think it's installed correctly. libgif4 is no longer in the repository, so I installed libgif-dev and libgif7. WxPerl 0.9932 is installed. Iffeffit is installed, and gnuplot-x11 and pgplot5 are installed. I ran ./Build installdeps and it ran but eventually got stuck in a loop saying "please tell me where I can find your apache src", which I ignored. The script terminated with "/usr/bin/make install -- OK" and then I installed apache2 anyways. Now, if I rerun it, it outputs "all prerequisites satisfied". I ran perl Build.PL, which seemed to complete successfully, and then finally ./Build and ./Build test, however ./Build test fails one test: Test Summary Report------------------- t/003_config.t (Wstat: 512 Tests: 22 Failed: 2) Failed tests: 17, 22 Non-zero exit status: 2 Files=44, Tests=2671, 89 wallclock secs ( 0.34 usr 0.07 sys + 85.03 cusr 3.94 csys = 89.38 CPU) Result: FAIL Failed 1/44 test programs. 2/2671 subtests failed. corresponding to: # Failed test 'configuration system introspection works: groups 38 artemis' # at t/003_config.t line 66. # Failed test 'introspection after reading new group: groups' # at t/003_config.t line 80. # Looks like you failed 2 tests of 22. t/003_config.t ..........

Does anyone know how to resolve this problem? any help would be much appreciated, Joseph -- *Joseph Zsombor-Pindera, BSc* PhD Student, UBC Chemistry Cell: 514.804.0798 6201 Cecil Green Park Road Vancouver BC, V6T 1Z1 C

Geting Trouble in Fitting CuZr2 strucutr with Cu33Zr67 alloy using simulations
by Akash Deshmukh 11 Oct '19

11 Oct '19

I am trying to do EXAFS fitting using simulations for Cu33Zr67 (Cu33). After running lammps program, I have got.XYZ files for the Cu33. While running edamd command, I am not getting output files. However, the program is running continuously for more than 12 hours. I am considering CuZr2 crystal structure as an input file to fit with Cu33. Can anyone please help me to figure out this? _______________________________________________________________________________ With Best Regards, Akash A. Deshmukh, +91 9175477696

XAS fitting
by Wang, Maoyu 11 Oct '19

11 Oct '19

Hi I am running an EXAFS fitting for spinel Co3O4. As we know, the Co3O4 will have two different two local coordinations. One is 6 Co-O coordinated octahedral site, and another one is 4 Co-O coordinated tetrahedral site. When we run the Feff calculation, we can only use one Co site to do the calculation once, and we can only get one site coordination by one calculation. However, the EXAFS will tell us the average local structure. How could we use these two different calculation paths to do the fitting?

Has anyone had issues with software installation? I have installed it on a Windows machine (64 bit, 7 pro). It appears to install, but when I try to run it, it starts but immediately shuts down. Am I missing something? Thanks M Three colleagues are having the same issue.

Re: [Ifeffit] Fluorescence sample thickness
by Wallick, Rachel 01 Oct '19

01 Oct '19

The complex is 13% by mass of the absorbing element (Copper K-edge). The solvent will be acetonitrile and by control the concentration, I mean that I can dictate how much of the sample may be put into the capillary. I won’t be able to control the amount of the absorbing element.

Fluorescence sample thickness
by Wallick, Rachel 01 Oct '19

01 Oct '19

I'm preparing for an XAS measurement in fluorescence of a solution-phase sample that will be measured in a capillary tube. I anticipate being able to control the concentration fairly easily, and I'm trying to figure out what the best capillary diameter would be. Is there a good way to figure this out?
