  Description     : X-ray absorption, fluorescence spectroscopy and diffraction data analysis

Larch is a library and set of applications for processing and analyzing X-ray
absorption and fluorescence spectroscopy data and X-ray fluorescence and
diffraction image data from synchrotron beamlines. It is especially focussed
on X-ray absorption fine-structure spectroscopy (XAFS) including X-ray
absorption near-edge spectroscopy (XANES) and extended X-ray absorption
fine-structure spectroscopy (EXAFS). It also supports visualization and
analysis tools for X-ray fluorescence (XRF) spectra and XRF and X-ray
diffraction (XRD) images as collected at scanning X-ray microprobe beamlines.


This package replaces the iffeffit and horae applications.
