I seem to be able to make some progress in using Larch, thanks to the developers. I wish to produce a plot in R rather than k, what would be the equivalent commands to ff2chi, path.k etc as per the /examples/feffit/doc_feffdat3.lar?


The sum with `ff2chi` only sums in k-space.  But the output is ready to do a Fourier transform with `xftf` (short for "XAFS Fourier Transform Forward").  So, building on doc_feffdat3.lar,  you could do

   # sum of paths (assumed to be defined already), writing chi(k) to "mysum":
   ff2chi([path1, path2, path3, path4, path5], group=mysum)

   # now do an XAFS Fourier transform on that group to go from k to R space:
   xftf(mysum,   kweight=2,  kmin=3, kmax=15, window='kaiser', dk=4)
 
  # plot of |chir(R)| for this sum
  plot(mysum.r,  mysum.chir_mag, label='sum of paths', xlabel=r'$R \rm\,(\AA)$',ylabel=r'$|\chi(R)| \rm\,(\AA^{-3})$')

We're working to release the next version of Larch very soon, which includes common xafs plotting commands so that the
last line there could be written as "plot_chir(mysum, label='sum of paths')".
