WinCSD: software package for crystallographic calculations (Version 4)

The fourth version of the program package WinCSD is multi-purpose computer software for crystallographic calculations using single-crystal and powder X-ray and neutron diffraction data. The software environment and the graphical user interface are built using the platform of the Microsoft. NET Framework, which grants independence from changing Windows operating systems and allows for transferring to other operating systems. Graphic applications use the three-dimensional OpenGL graphics language. WinCSD covers the complete spectrum of crystallographic calculations, including powder diffraction pattern deconvolution, crystal structure solution and refinement in 3 + d space, refinement of the multipole model and electron density studies from diffraction data, and graphical representation of crystallographic information.
