Dear Upakul,
I would recommend downloading and installing the modified Jedit software
from John Evans site:
http://www.dur.ac.uk/john.evans/topas_academic/topas_main.htm
I have never needed an instrument parameter file with TA because it is
possible to set all of your instrument parameters within the inp file. The
plugins that come with John Evans Jedit install make setting up the input
files extremely clear and considerably easier than going through the
manuals for all of the keywords.
There are also several instrument-set ups already programmed into the
plugin for Johns diffractometers, including a D8. You will need to change
the emmission profile wavelength and parameters to a Co source though as
(if I am remembering correctly) it is set up with a Cu source.
I hope this was helpful.
Best regards
Ross Colman
Hi All,
I am an absolute beginner to this community and Rietveld. I have been
trying to get a grip on TOPAS-Academic (v4). I was wondering if anyone
could let me know where to get hold of an instrumental parameter file for
a Bruker D8 advance (Co source). We use this in our laboratory. I have
been trying to search for this without much success. Of course I could
create one myself, but if one is already available, it saves us some time.
Thanks in advance.
