How To Install python3-pyxrd on Debian 12
Introduction
In this tutorial we learn how to install python3-pyxrd
on Debian 12.
What is python3-pyxrd
python3-pyxrd is:
python implementation of the matrix algorithm for computer modeling of X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns of disordered lamellar structures. It’s goals are to:
- provide an easy user-interface for end-users
- provide basic tools for displaying and manipulating XRD patterns
- produce high-quality (publication-grade) figures
- make modelling of XRD patterns for mixed-layer clay minerals ’easy'
- be free and open-source (open box instead of closed box model)
PyXRD was written with the multi-specimen full-profile fitting method in mind. A direct result is the ability to ‘share’ parameters among similar phases. This allows for instance to have an air-dry and a glycolated illite-smectite share their coherent scattering domain size, but still have different basal spacings and interlayer compositions for the smectite component. Or play with the di/tri-octahedral composition of a chlorite with ease.
There are three methods to install python3-pyxrd
on Debian 12. We can use apt-get
, apt
and aptitude
. In the following sections we will describe each method. You can choose one of them.
Install python3-pyxrd Using apt-get
