May 2009:

A bug fix for Version 3 of XDAP for Windows has been released.

March 2009:

Version 3 of XDAP for Windows has been released. The most important new feature is the ability to do Data Reduction for up to 10 files at the same time using an already Data Reduced file as a template.

Upgrade pricing can be found in the licensing section.

Oct 2008:

An updated demo of XDAP for Windows has been posted.

May 2008:

An updated demo of XDAP for Windows has been posted.

December 2007:

The current version number for XDAP for Windows is 2.2.10.

June 2007:

The current version number for XDAP for Windows is 2.2.9.

January 2007:

The current version number for XDAP for Windows is still 2.2.7. Work on a new feature that facilitates analysis of QEXAFS and / or DEXAFS measurements is continuing. In order to streamline product development and speed up implementation of new features the decision was made to discontinue the XDAP versions for MS-DOS, MacOS, UNIX and Linux effective immediately. However, these products will continue to receive support . A new license and upgrade fee schedule has been posted as well.

September 2006:

Work on a new feature that facilitates analysis of QEXAFS or DEXAFS measurements has started.

May 2006:

The current version number for XDAP for Windows is 2.2.7. There have been a number of bugfixes since January 2006. Work on several new features has started. Let us know at info@xsi.nl if you have suggestions or wishes.

January 2006:

The current version number for XDAP for Windows is 2.2.6. There have been a number of bugfixes since June 2005 and part of the Help files has been rewritten. Licensed users can request an updated set of Help files.

June 2005:

The current version of XDAP for Windows is 2.2.5.

Mulitple Shell Analysis has been expanded with the ability to fit third and fourth order cumulants in every shell. This is of particular importance for analysis of spectra measured at room temperature or above.

There is the usual set of bug fixes and interface improvements. An improvement in the conversion of files with just energy and absorption to the internal XDAP format should also be mentioned.

January 2005:

The current version number for XDAP for Windows is 2.1.5.

September 2004:

XDAP for Windows has received a number of interface enhancements and several bugs have been fixed. The Help function (not available in the Demo version) now works correctly. The current version number for XDAP for Windows is 2.1.4.

May 2004:

XDAP for Windows has received a number of interface enhancements and several bugs have been fixed. Support for datafiles from the Photon Factory (Tsukuba) and Spring-8 has been added.

The current version number for XDAP for Windows is 2.1.2.

January 2004:

Two exiting features have been added to the Multiple Shell Analysis option of XDAP for Windows, the first is the ability to fix the ratio of parameters, the second is the ability to fix the sum of a set of parameters. Fixing the sum of parameters (particularly coordination numbers) is really useful if one knows the structure of the surroundings of the absorber and needs to determine the size of the particle / domain. Fixing the sum of a set of parameters is important when one analyses the relative ratio of one or more neighbours to the absorber.

Another big change is the implementation of a full menu structure to select the various options of XDAP for Windows. This allows easier access to the full power of XDAP.

There have also been a number of bug and interface fixes. Current version number is 2.0.3.

November 2003:

A new XDAP for Windows demo has been released. Bug fixes and small improvements have taken the version number up to 1.3.18.

July 2003:

A new XDAP for Windows demo has been released.

March 2003:

XDAP for Windows has arrived at version 1.3.10, due to the continued fixing of bugs and small improvements.

December 2002:

XDAP for Windows has arrived at version 1.3.8.

August 2002:

Version 1.3.5 of XDAP for Windows has been released. This update brings the following new and enhanced features:

• Support for binary FEFF 8 files.

• A routine to convert FEFF chi.dat files to XDAP .CHI files was added..

• Increases the number of points that can be deglitched to 50.

• Averaging of .INI files is back by popular demand.

Besides these new features there are numerous bug fixes and interface improvements, particular in the Multiple Shell Analysis section.

February 2002:

Version 1.2.0 of XDAP for Windows has been released. Several new GUI features have been added. Among these are file selection. Another important new feature is the option to compare five sets of background parameters as EXAFS, FT, background or derivatives of the background.

September 2001:

An updated demo of XDAP for Windows is available. This demo will expire on December 15, 2001. Besides a number of bug fixes, it contains a new GUI for XANES analysis. Try it out!

June 2001:

Over the past few months several bugs have been fixed and a couple of new features have been added to the background subtraction GUI. A new version of the XDAP for Windows demo has been made available.

April 2001:

XSI has made another step in making XDAP more userfriendly and EXAFS analysis less time consuming! Everybody who has ever seriously analysed EXAFS spectra of diluted samples knows that dealing with glitches is a major time consuming step before data analysis can even begin. With the new deglitch GUI of XDAP for Windows this step has become a breeze.

The zoom function is now completely graphical, but the possibility to enter exact data ranges has been retained.

December 2000:

The demo of the Windows version of XDAP is now available! The familiar menu structure has not disappear alltogether, but where appropriate menus and dialogs have been used to make XDAP easier to learn and use. It is possible to print to any windows compatible printer. For more information click here.

June 1999:

An option to batch process data files has been implemented. This is extremely usefull in doing Data Reduction on multiple spectra of the same sample. It will also proof handy in the analysis of Dispersive EXAFS experiments.

November 1998:

Principal Component Analysis (PCA) for XANES, EXAFS and Fourier Transforms have been added to the already extensive analysis capabilities of XDAP. A nice introduction to the use of PCA in XAS is given in the paper by M.J. Fay et al., Mikrochimica Acta, 109 (1992) 281 - 294.

August 1998:

• The demo of XDAP is now available in a native PowerMac version. Go to the download section to retrieve your copy.

• In the process of the development of the PowerMac demo a couple of glitches and omissions in the 68K FPU demo were discovered and corrected.
