AiiDA QE Xspec

Overview

AiiDA QE Xspec is an AiiDA plugin designed for core-level spectroscopy calculations using Quantum ESPRESSO. It provides workflows for X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy (XAS) and X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS), enabling automated and reproducible calculations within the AiiDA framework.

Features

• X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy (XAS) using the XSpectra module of Quantum ESPRESSO.
• X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) calculations via the XpsWorkChain.
• Integration with AiiDAlab, providing a user-friendly interface for spectroscopy simulations.
• FAIR data principles with provenance tracking via AiiDA.

Installation

To install AiiDA QE Xspec, ensure you have AiiDA and Quantum ESPRESSO set up, then run:

pip install aiida-qe-xspec

Compatibility

The support/0.3.x branch remains available for older AiiDAlab installations that require AiiDA Quantum ESPRESSO 4.12.1.
