[sdpd] RIET: Updated software and publication list for Charge Flipping



Updates below from the lastpost:

VESTA (Visualization for Electronic and STructural Analysis)
 by Koichi Momma and Fujio Izumi : 
Can input the *.xplor output from Superflip and delete
 the negative isosurfaces instantly to see only positive ones.

For those who have not seen it yet: in demonstrating the Charge
Flipping strucure solution algorithm of Oszlanyi and Suto 
[Acta Cryst. (2004), A60, 134-141; Acta Cryst. (2005). A61, 147-152], 
there is a marvellous Java applet written by Nicolas Schoeni and Gervais
Chapuis at: 
  http://escher.epfl.ch/flip/

It can also be downloaded as a standalone file:
  http://escher.epfl.ch/flip/flip.jar

Solving the [2D] structure seems quite magical.

Via David Watkin:
 Create a simple molecule - chlorobenzene - and it will recover it very
 quickly. Create something with pseudo-symmetry, and it struggles. Fiddle
 with the boxes in the middle pane, and sometimes it works. Even more
 intriguing, clear the partial solution and simply start the charge
 flipping again, and because the start is random, it may work.

Charge Flipping is implemented within:

Superflip by Lukas Palatinus and Gervais Chapuis

Some example files single crystal and powder at:
   http://superspace.epfl.ch/superflip/examples.html

Superflip is a computer program for application of the charge-flipping
algorithm to structure solution of crystal structures from diffraction
data. Superflip works in arbitrary dimension and can be therefore used
for solution of normal periodic structures, modulated structures and
also quasicrystals.

The latest distribution of the Crystals single crystal suite (1 July
2007) has a link to Superflip provided by Arie van der Lee
   http://www.xtl.ox.ac.uk/download.html

  - put the superflip Windows executable in the c:\wincrys directory
  - make sure c:\wincrys is in the path statement
  - read Superflip manual for options (if tweaking the superflip file):
      http://superspace.epfl.ch/superflip/download/superflip_user_manual.pdf
  - then accessible via Crystals menu: Solve, Superflip
