    1D SAXS indexing macro for Igor Pro
    (2021-09-08) Lindsay, Aaron P; Mueller, Andreas J; Mahanthappa, Mahesh K; Lodge, Timothy P; Bates, Frank S; bates001@umn.edu; Bates, Frank S; UMN Polymer Group
    This code was developed for the facile analysis of 1D SAXS data collected from ordered materials in Igor Pro. A robust file loading algorithm is included, allowing for rapid generation of publication quality stack plots. Also included is a straightforward indexing macro, enabling indexing of 1D SAXS data to a variety of phases. New phases can be added with minimal effort and multiple indexing options are included (e.g., ticks, lines, color, etc.), minimizing time spent analyzing data and producing plots for presentations or publications.

    Wigner-Seitz Cell generation and calculations in MATLAB
    (2021-09-08) Lindsay, Aaron P; Mueller, Andreas J; Mahanthappa, Mahesh K; Lodge, Timothy P; Bates, Frank S; bates001@umn.edu; Bates, Frank S; UMN Polymer Group
    This series of MATLAB codes was developed to generate publication-quality Wigner-Seitz cells for a variety of structures. These are frequently desired for self-assembled micellar systems, wherein the geometry of the Wigner-Seitz cell plays a role in the emergence of several packings. The main algorithm (VoronoiTesselation.m) is generalized, allowing specification of lattice positions and parameters or the upload of these values from a .xtl file exported from Vesta. Added is the ability to determine various cell parameters, including the coordination number, area/volume, and the second-moment volume, which is proportional to the stretching moment for polymer chains stretched from the cell center to the cell edges. A simple algorithm for simulation of 2D diffraction patterns is also included (diffraction.m).
