HarwellXPS Armoury is a free plugin host for CasaXPS, built by HarwellXPS, the UK's national XPS facility at the Research Complex at Harwell. It runs alongside CasaXPS and adds tools for everyday XPS work. The public release includes: - XPS Import: bring instrument files into CasaXPS and assign spectra to samples and experiments - Plotter: quick, publication-ready plots of your spectra - Lineshape Tester: check how a lineshape behaves before using it in a fit Further plugins are offered as separate downloads. All plugins are signed by HarwellXPS, and Armoury only loads approved, signed plugins. Windows only. Unzip and run HarwellXPS-Armoury.exe; no installer needed. If Armoury helps your research, please acknowledge HarwellXPS in your publications. Grant codes and more at harwellxps.uk.

The Massively Parallel Quantum Chemistry program, MPQC, computes properties of atoms and molecules from first principles using the time independent Schrödinger equation.

The rapid and efficient development of soft active materials requires readily available, compact testing equipment. We propose a desktop-sized, cost-efficient, and open source radial stretching system as an alternative to commercially available biaxial and uniaxial stretching devices. It allows for doubling the diameter of an elastomer membrane while measuring the applied force. Our development enables significant cost reduction (~300 €) and increase the availability of equibiaxial deformation measurements for scientific material analysis.
