Re: [Ifeffit] Error in Atoms output

2018-03-20 Thread Godfrey, Ian
Hi Bruce/All,


I've recently (before this bug was reported) done some monoclinic analyses; 
consequently, I'm wondering if this bug impacts all monoclinic CIFs, or only 
certain cases (and if so, is there any easy way to confirm whether it had an 
impact?)? I think my data was fine - the path list matched what I was expecting 
and what has been reported previously - but I'd like to be certain before 
publishing etc..


Thanks,


Ian

Hi Kaustubh,

Thanks for this bug report.  This uncovered not one but two bugs in how
Atoms handles monoclinic space groups.  How economical!  I will be
pushing a fix to github soon and I will try to find some time to make a
new windows installer.

I should point out that, even with the bug fix, the distances using the
CIF file you attached will not match Phys. Rev. B 2 (1970) 3771.

The CIF file that you supplied is from
doi:10.1016/S0022-4596(03)00295-0, which reports slightly different
numbers for the undoped V2O3 compared to the 1970 paper.  I have
attached a feff.inp file that I think is correct.

Thanks Bruce. 
I agree that the paper and the cif file had no relation. I merely wanted to 
emphasize the point that ATOMS was giving an erroneous output.  

Cheers,
Kaustubh

Could anyone tell me where am I making a mistake. I am aware that I2/a 
is a non standard space group but I am not sure if I need to take any 
precaution while reading the cif file in ATOMS.
