EXAFS Neo utilize Genetic algorithm in fitting Extended X-ray absorption fine structure(EXAFS).

It is highly recommend to utilize anaconda or pipx package managers to prevent unforseen dependency conflicts. EXAFS Neo uses larch to process the x-ray spectrum.

• Python: 3.x
• Numpy: 1.17.2
• Larch: >0.9.46
• Matplotlib: 3.1.2

It is highly recommend to create a new environment in anaconda to run EXAFS Neo to prevent packages conflicts.

    conda create --name exafs python=3.7  numpy matplotlib pyqt
    conda activate exafs
    conda install -yc GSECARS xraylarch

To install EXAFS Neo, simply clone the repo:

    git clone https://github.com/laumiulun/EXAFS-Neo-Public.git
    cd EXAFS-Neo-Public/
    python setup.py install

To run a sample test, make sure the enviornment is set correctly, and select a input file:

    exafs -i test/test.ini

We also have provided a GUI for use in additions to our program, with additional helper script to facilitate post analysis. To use the GUI:

    cd gui
    python XAFS_GUI.py
