If I can't calculate it, I don't understand it
Richard Feynman
To assist undestanding of experimental results, we work to develop code to help us understand
the results as well as predict new phenomena to investigate experimentally. One major tool is
our edm code which we use to determine structures just from electron
diffraction data.
A brief guide to installing the code is available in
software_install_guide.pdf. Some additional information is available in the edm
page, although this may not be 100% up to date.
If you are unfamiliar with Linux, some notes can be found in Linux_Notes.pdf

The best method is to download the latest EDM via anonymous cvs:
cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@129.105.122.84:/home/cvsroot checkout edm
or look via a web
interface, at the bottom of which you will find a tarball.
Other key tools are:
- Numis: code for calculating electron diffraction with DFT calculated electron
densities or calculating precession electron diffraction intensities. This can be accessed
by anonymous cvs:
cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@129.105.122.84:/home/cvsroot checkout Numis-2.0
or look via a web
interface
- Semper: a portable image processing code. This can be accessed by cvs to the
same site (cvs checkout semper-7.0beta)
or look via a web
interface, at the bottom of which you will find a tarball.
- Other code, and older versions are shown at the
web
interface
