athena 0.8.028, artemis 0.7.004, and hephaestus 0.02
Hi folks, I have just posted a new source code package for my codes on my web page and on SourceForge. You can now run the horae_update script. I have also assembled the contents of the Windows updater, which should be available in the next few days. When it is ready, the windows updater will notice and update you automatically. Along with many bug fixes and feature enhancements in Athena and Hephaestus, there are a large number of improvements in Artemis. As you all no doubt remember, there were quite a large number of serious bugs reported after the last release of Artemis. With the generous and patient help of several users I was able to understand and correct about two dozen problems leading to all sorts of misbehavior ranging from simple trap file generation to program crashes. I am guardedly optimistic that you will find the new release to be a significant improvement over the last in terms of stability and usability. Among the big new features of Artemis are: 1. An revamped Guess, Def, Set page with lots of new features. I'll be sending out an email later this afternoon explaining the new GDS page. 2. The ability to clone feff calculations. This will be very helpful for those of you doing multiple data set fits. This, too, will get its own email later today. 3. New ways of viewing the log file. 4. Expanded information about each path displayed on the paths page. and lots of minor enhancements. See the change log on my web site for the complete list. One caveat -- I once again made some changes to the format of the artemis project file. I will not be able to guarantee stability of the project file format for a long time to come. I'll make sure Artemis can read in project files from previous versions, but it is likely that any new version will write a project file that cannot be completely imported by older versions. That's just one more reason to stay up-to-date! Several people get an acknowledgement for their contributions to this release: David Barton, Gerrit Schmithals, Aria Yang, Scott Calvin, Peter Southon, and Dogan Paktunc all deserve a tip of the cap for excellent suggestions and useful bug reports. Shelly Kelly was amazingly generous with her time in the last few weeks helping me to debug the current version. She also helped me design the new GDS page and pushed me to add several of the other new features in the code. All of you should buy Shelly a beer the next time you see her -- I certainly will! As always, let me know what suggestions you have or problems you run into.

Hi Everyone, The Windows update for this new set of athena, artemis, and hephaestus is now available. You can either wait for the updater to run automatically, or download and unzip the file http://cars9.uchicago.edu/ifeffit/updates/ifup_009.zip into your Ifeffit directory. --Matt
Hi Bruce, I would like to express my comments on Artemis new version. On Thu, May 20, 2004 at 04:29:25PM -0400, Bruce Ravel wrote:

This is very good because with the new page you can select and paste your math expressions to use in other project. In fact, could be useful to add an save/import option to read a file with math expressions.
3. New ways of viewing the log file.
This is very useful, expecially in writing latex reports.
4. Expanded information about each path displayed on the paths page.
Could be useful to put also the angle (expecially for triangular paths)
and lots of minor enhancements. See the change log on my web site for the complete list.
Thank you very much for your work,
Mauro

Well, it was Shelly's idea originally. But I think both she and I had latex in mind. So far there are only the three ways of viewing the log file. I am open to other suggestions and, if there is interest, would be willing to consider making the log file highly configurable.
4. Expanded information about each path displayed on the paths page.

The box above the path parameters on a path page now shows the beta angle of each scattering event. If the eta angle is non-zero, it shows that as well. What other angles are there?

Ops! My mistake, it's right. :)
