What is XOP?

XOP (X-ray Oriented Programs) is a graphical user interface to run computer programs that calculate basic information needed by synchrotron radiation beamline scientists and engineers. It can also be used as a front end for specific codes or packages for data analysis and  data reduction. XOP contains a customized database for optical and atomic constants (DABAX). It has a flexible design and new applications may be added.
