The orientation-dependent simulation of ELNES.

We describe a program that allows the simulation of energy-loss near edge structure (ELNES). As an extension to the WIEN97 package (a full potential linearized augmented plane wave package for calculating crystal properties) [1] it permits to separate different contributions to the inelastic scattering cross section according to the character of the final state, explicitly taking into account projection onto scattering vector and integration over collection and convergence angle. Thus the program facilitates analysis of ELNES under precisely defined experimental conditions, and allows the investigation of anisotropic effects in ELNES from crystal structures.
