Hi folks, I got mail this afternoon asking me about documentation for Artemis. That has, of course, been a long-standing shortcoming of the code. It turns out that I have spent a decent chunk of time in the last couple weeks working on the Artemis doc. It is only about 25% written, but the portions that I have written are introductory material. It should be useful even in its current, sparse form. Here's the URL: http://leonardo.phys.washington.edu/~ravel/software/exafs/docs.html I am only posting the PDF at this time. I'll be updating it frequently as I work on it, but I probably won't announce updates on this channel until it is a lot closer to finished. So check back often if you are interested. Please be aware that it is nowhere near finished. It is full of gaps, typos, suspicious statements, and dangling trains of thought. It is so far from finished that "documentation" may be too kind of a term. However, it seems that posting the unfinished doc on my web site is well within that open source spirit of "release early, release often" that I have adopted with my codes. If it proves useful to some of you -- super! B P.S. If anyone is interested in helping out with the doc, either by copy editing or by contributing text, let me know -- I'd be jumping- up-and-down happy if that happened. -- Bruce Ravel ----------------------------------- ravel@phys.washington.edu Code 6134, Building 3, Room 222 Naval Research Laboratory phone: (1) 202 767 5947 Washington DC 20375, USA fax: (1) 202 767 1697 NRL Synchrotron Radiation Consortium (NRL-SRC) Beamlines X11a, X11b, X23b, X24c, U4b National Synchrotron Light Source Brookhaven National Laboratory, Upton, NY 11973 My homepage: http://feff.phys.washington.edu/~ravel EXAFS software: http://feff.phys.washington.edu/~ravel/software/exafs/
