Trouble in running Artemis in Mac
by Chang-wook Lee 13 Jul '17

13 Jul '17

I’m using Artemis in Mac. I got a trouble on running the software. Once the Artemis shut down by accident, (during import .inp file), the problem occurred. When I reopen the Artemis, It tries to restore previous file but it never worked. I uninstalled and reinstalled it several times but I can only see same unlimited loading screen… Athena works well. Thanks, Changwook

Hello everyone, Every time I try to open gse_mapviewer via the terminal on Mac OSX, I keep getting the message: "This program needs access to the screen. Please run with a Framework build of python, and only when you are logged in on the main display of your Mac." I do not know how to get past this issue on my computer. Any help would be appreciated. -Drew ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Drew D.

XAFS Tutorial
by Daniel Austin Sheffield Uni 07 Jul '17

07 Jul '17

Hello, I am currently trying to learn how to use the software through the tutorials on the User Manuals. For Athena I tried to download the practice fe.060 data from Github but the data won’t download. I have asked my supervisor and he can’t download it either. Can anyone suggest how i can successfully download it? I realise i may be missing something obvious. Alternatively, if someone has the practice file data already downloaded could they send it to me? Thanks you, Daniel

Exporting Curves (as Data rather than Images)
by Felix E. Feiten 26 Jun '17

26 Jun '17

Dear all, I think the title is almost enough explanation. I would like to export the data corresponding to fits, chi(k), fourier-transform and back-transform to plot them with a different software. I couldn't figure out how, can someone please help me? With kind regards Felix

Nearest neighbor statistics in a random alloy
by Felix E. Feiten 23 Jun '17

23 Jun '17

Dear all, I am fitting a Pt9Co1 foil sample. I assume the sample to be basically fcc platinum with every 10th atom randomly replaced by cobalt. Here are the assumptions I make: 1. every atom has 12 nearest neighbors 2. every Pt atom has (on average) 10.7 Pt nearest neighbors and 1.3 Co nearest neighbors 3. every Co atom has (on average) 11.7 Pt nearest neighbors and 0.3 Co nearest neighbors I have been told that assumptions 2 and 3 are not precise. Here is what I'm confused about: In order to determine the number of Pt or Co nearest neighbors I looked at an ensemble of 13 atoms: 1 absorber and 12 scatterers/nearest neighbors. I assume that the Pt/Co ratio in this ensemble is 9/1 and therefor, statistically, 1.3 out of those 13 atoms should be Co. That means that if Co is the central atom only 0.3 Co atoms are remaining for the 12 nearest neighbors. On the other hand, if Pt is the central atom, (all) 1.3 Co atoms are remaining for the 12 nearest neighbors. I have been told that the ratio of Pt/Co should be 9/1 in the 12 nearest neighbors, not in the 12 atoms including the central atom (quote: "because we have a bulk sample"). But I do not understand why. Can someone please explain the correct answer to me? With kind regards, Felix

Automatically doing many fits / Scripting
by Felix E. Feiten 23 Jun '17

23 Jun '17

Dear Ifeffit mailing-list, first of all sorry for writing another mail to the list in such a short time span, I hope people will not get sick of me too quickly. I want to do many fits for the same data with varying start-parameters. More specifically, I am doing fits to EXAFS data of the Pt L3 edge of PtCo(X) nanoparticles and want to vary sigma^2 for each of the two paths (Pt-Pt and Pt-Co) that I fit. I want to 1. start a fit with certain parameters, 2. save the log file, 3. change one parameter many (120 for now) times. If there is no functionality to do this in Artemis I'll have to resort to using some external script that abuses Artemis. In that case I will report on how it went. But obviously, it would be much more comfortable if Artemis had something like this implemented. Any way to start a fit from the windows command line (I'm using Windows 10) would also be very helpful as that would probably allow me to do the scripting in PowerShell relatively easily. With kind regards, Felix
