EXAFS Analysis Using FEFF and FEFFIT

Hosting a workshop at your institution

You may be interested in having a presentation of the EXAFS Analysis Using FEFF and FEFFIT workshop at your institution. If so, you should contact Bruce Ravel directly.

The EXAFS Analysis Using FEFF and FEFFIT workshop is typically held over three days. Mornings are reserved for lectures, which typically require about 90 minutes. Afternoons are used for computer sessions so that the participants may learn the use of the programs with real analysis examples.

  • The morning lectures should be held in a lecture room with adequate seating for the participants. Access to a data projector which I can use with a laptop computer is an nonnegotiable requirement.

  • The afternoon sessions should be held in a computer lab. My preference is for people to work in pairs, thus one computer is needed for every two participants. These computers must be equipped with a data plotting utility such as Microcal Origin or Gnuplot. A spreadsheet such as Excel is unacceptable to me. Network connections and a printer are unnecessary needed, however each computer should be equipped with a CD reader or a Zip100 drive so that I may install the data analysis software.

I am fairly flexible as to the nature of the computers provided for use in the afternoon sessions. My preference is for a group of Linux or other unix workstations, although I am willing and able to provide course materials for Windows 98 or Windows NT. While I am willing in principle to use Macintosh or other kinds of computers for the course, doing so would require extensive work by the host as I do not have access to these computers for compiling programs and testing the analysis examples.

The language of the morning lectures is English. However, I am conversant in French and Spanish and the afternoon computer sessions can be conducted in either language.

Your institution is expected to pay expenses associated with travel, lodging, and meals for the duration of the course. Payment of an honorarium or other form of remuneration is negotiable and should be discussed directly with Bruce.

Reproduction of the CD-ROM containing all course materials is the responsibility of the host, although a master copy will be provided by Bruce.
