xrayutilities 1.1.1 was released (2015-01-22)
Some new features include
*) new FuzzyGridder1D allowing to assign every data-point a certain width
which will distribute them over multiple output bins according to the
overlap.
*) the reciprocal space conversion (for point, linear, area detectors) can
now handle translation-stages in the detector arm
*) the reciprocal space conversion (for point, linear, area detectors) can
also treat now energy scans, where instead (or in addition) to angles the
energy of the x-ray photons is altered.
*) new PseudoVoigt1dasym function implementing an asymmetric PseudoVoigt
peak
This release contains also a lot of improvements which are not visible to
the user on first sight:
*) improvements in the file parsers, which now keep the files closed when
not parsing them, which was a weak point so far.
*) a memory leak in the XRDML file parser was closed by changing the backend
*) better automatic determination of the intial parameters in the peak_fit
function
See the CHANGES.txt file or the GIT log for a more complete list of changes.
