The software
PRESTOPRONTO (from Italian “soon ready”)consist to a
full GUI EXAFS program aimed to the analysis large data sets. It is a free open source software. The main benefit of the code
is to allows to the experimentalist to follow in
real time the evolution of the QEXAFS experiments. The
code is formed by executable: Prestopronto.exe and PCA_GUI. The former is in
charge to read big dataset from QEXAFS and DISPERSIVE beamlines,
apply calibration and alignment corrections, and perform classical data
analysis, from the extraction to the EXAFS fit using as engine the code
IFEFFIT. The latter is specialized to Principal Component Analysis and Iterative
Target Factor Analysis a procedure to align theoretical components obtained
from PCA analysis to the real experimental ones. In
the present version the software is able to open file from beamlines BM29, BM23, ID24(ESRF)
and SAMBA(SOLEIL) or ascii files from a generic beamline. Written in Python, the software has an intuitive graphical user interface and can be run or by source code (Windows, MAC, UNIX) or using a compiled version (WINDOWS) |
