D10

Four-circle diffractometer with three-axis energy analysis

Rplot

Rplot is a simple program to visualize D10 (and other ILL single-crystal diffractometers) raw data.

Rplot is distributed under the LGPLv3 (Lesser Gnu Public License version 3). A copy of the license text can be invoked from the About window within the program. The source code of the dynamically linked Qt libraries can be obtained here (zip - 1.52 Mi) (note that the original code was not modified). The QCustomPlot library can be downloaded here (zip - 225 Ki) or from www.qcustomplot.com. The Eigen library was obtained here (eigen.tuxfamily.org).

Features

  • open Numors containing any type of scan (including D10 Flatcone)
  • visualization of 2D detector images
  • open *.ans files from Racer integrations including visualization of integration ellipsoids
  • simple integration of peaks and plotting vs. temperature, field, etc.
  • reconstruction of 2D maps in reciprocal space from Q-scans
  • 3D view of integrated reflections in reciprocal space
  • generation of reflection lists
  • filtering of loaded data with respect to different criteria
  • saving of workspace for quick recovering of loaded data
  • exporting of data in PDF and ASCII formats
  • logbook function

 

Installation guide

Rplot can be downloaded for Windows (zip - 36 Mi), macOS (dmg - 14.29 Mi) and Linux [AppImage (appimage - 33 Mi) (only 64 bit) or Debian package (deb - 1.25 Mi)].

Windows:

  • execute vcredist_x64.exe (this will install the Visual Studio Redistributable packages, only necessary once)
  • launch Rplot.exe (it has to stay in its folder with all necessary libraries)

macOS:

  • open the dmg-file and drag the app to your Applications folder or wherever you want

Linux:

AppImage (only 64 bit)

  • Download and launch the AppImage.

Debian package

  • Download gdebi from a terminal: sudo apt-get install gdebi 
  • Install the debian package: sudo gdebi rplot_1.4.0-1_amd64.deb 
  • Start the program by typing Rplot

 

Recent updates (since v1.0)

  • Bugfix concerning the decimal places of negative values when hovering over a data point

v1.5 (June 2019)

  • new functionalities 'Add Numors' and 'Refresh'. The latter will automatically open any new Numors in the last directory.
  • visible detector area is now taken into account for exporting and fitting peaks

  • bugfix 07/10/20: export of 5 decimals for fit parameters in 'Fit range'

v1.4 (May 2019)

  • added instrument definitions and configurations to settings menu
  • (hkl) positions are now displayed when hovering mouse over 2D-detector images

v1.3 (September 2018)

  • added non-standard space groups
  • option to export 2D detector frames to ASCII file (single frame or all frames)

v1.2 (May 2018)

  • opens *.lis files (e.g. for D23)
  • bugfix in the visualization of RACER integration ellipsoids for NUMORs with leading 0
  • bugfix in plotting q-scans which have been interrupted before the end of the scan

v1.1 (March 2018)

  • visualization of D10 Flatcone data
  • visualization of RACER integration ellipsoids
  • filter according to even/odd hkl values
  • reads 32x32 and 64x64 pixels detector data

Mag2Pol

Mag2Pol is a program for the analysis of spherical polarimetry and flipping ratio data. However, nuclear and magnetic structure analysis from integrated intensities is also possible.

CCSL

CCSL is a library of subroutines for doing crystallographic and related calculations. It is designed not so much as a set of programs for determining and refining structures, for which several other systems are available, but as toolbox to allow the crystallography of non-trivial structures to be easily introduced into user programs.
