Athena crushes

16 Mar '18

Dear All, I am using latest version of Demeter package on Mac. I was working on unsaved project when Athena crushed for no apparent reason. Now when I restart Athena it suggest to me to recover project from autosave and couple of seconds later becomes unresponsive. Restarting the computer didn’t helped. Artemis works without issues. Does someone know the solution? warm wishes, Vasily

Data Import Error
by Nathan Nakamura 12 Mar '18

12 Mar '18

Hello Everyone, I'm fairly new to XAS/Athena, and recently collected XAS data at the F3 beamline at CHESS. I have had trouble importing our data files into Athena for processing, and I did not see a plugin for this beamline. Has anyone experienced a similar problem and may be able to point me in the right direction? I've attached an example of one of our data files, as well as an image of the error I've been receiving. Thank you, -Nathan Nakamura

01 Mar '18

Hello, SSRL will host its annual summer school this year during the third week of August (13th-17th). The focus of the school will on EXAFS hands on data analysis. In addition, electronic structure determination from the XAS pre-edge analysis and advanced spectroscopies will be covered. Examples from a wide range of scientific applications will be covered, including metals in biology, chemical catalysis, heterogenous catalysis and materials. I will post more information here, as and when it becomes available (hopefully soon) and we hope that many of you can attend. Best Wishes, -Riti Sarangi

Error message "typo in Template.pm"
by Elizabeth Tomaszewski 26 Feb '18

26 Feb '18

Hello, I keep getting the error message ""Demeter::Templates::D" used only once: possible typo at /opt/local/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.24/Text/Template.pm line 556, <DATA> line 236.” I located the Template.pm file but can not edit the template without changing permission in the terminal, which I don’t know how to do. Line 556 reads: local *SYM = *{"$ {dest}::$name”}; Line 236 reads: $cur_item .= '\\’; Athena will open when I type in the command window but I can only see the GUI for a second before the error message comes up and it has to shut down. Please help. Thanks, Elizabeth Tomaszewski
