GNXAS

  • Level of openness 2 ★★☆
  • Document quality 3 ★★★

An application for analysis of extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) based on the multiple scattering theory. This application implements relativistic self-consistent calculation using the muffin-tin approximation to evaluate atomic phase shift including effect of neighboring atoms. Spectra with any number of edges can be treated simultaneously. Complex background multi-electron excitation can also be evaluated.

WEST

  • Level of openness 3 ★★★
  • Document quality 3 ★★★

WEST is a package for calculating excited spectrum by using the one-shot GW method. Before calculating the excited spectrum, it is necessary to obtain the ground states from the DFT calculations (LDA/GGA/hybrid functional) by Quantum ESPRESSO. To reduce the numerical cost, WEST uses the algorithm that does not require the unoccupied bands. It is also possible to include the spin-orbit couplings and to perform the large-scale calculations at supercomputers. Installation and formats of input files are basically the same as those of Quantum ESPRESSO.
