XSophe — Sophe — XeprView

A computer simulation software suite for the analysis of continuous wave EPR spectra

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Progress in Theoretical Chemistry and Physics ((PTCP,volume 10))

Abstract

The XSophe-Sophe-XeprView computer simulation software suite provides scientists with an easy-to-use research tool for the analysis of isotropic, randomly orientated and single crystal continuous wave electron paramagnetic resonance (CW EPR) spectra. XSophe provides an X Windows graphical user interface to the Sophe programme allowing; the creation of multiple input files, the local and remote execution of Sophe and display of Sophelog (output from Sophe) and input parameters/files. Sophe is a sophisticated computer simulation software programme with a number of innovative technologies including; the Sophe partition and interpolation schemes, a field segmentation algorithm, the mosaic misorientation line width model, parallelisation (OpcnMP — for SGI computers running the lrix operating system) and spectral optimisation. In conjunction with the SOPHE partition scheme and the field segmentation algorithm, the SOPHE interpolation scheme and mosaic misorientation linewidth model greatly increase the speed of simulations for most spin systems. The output of CW EPR spectra (1D and 2D) from the Sophe programme can be visualised in conjunction with the experimental spectrum in XeprView or Xepr. Energy level diagrams, transition roadmaps and transition surfaces aid the interpretation of complicated randomly orientated EPR spectra and can he viewed with a netscape browser and an OpenInventor scene graph viewer.
