          Jana2006 is a crystallographic program focused to solution, 
          refinement and interpretation of difficult, especially modulated structures. It calculates structures 
          having up to three modulation vectors from powder as well as single crystal data measured with X-ray 
          or neutron diffraction. The input diffraction data can be unlimitedly combined, the combination of powder 
          neutron data with single crystal X-ray data being a typical example. The structure solution can be 
          done using the built-in charge flipping algorithm or by calling an external direct methods program. 
          Jana can handle multiphase structures (for both powder and single crystal data), merohedric 
          twins as well as twins with partial overlap of diffraction spots, commensurate and 
          composite structures. It contains powerful transformation tools for symmetry (group-subgroup relations),
          cell parameters and commensurate-supercell relations. Wide scale of constrains and restrains is available 
          including a powerful rigid body approach and possibility to define a local symmetry affecting only part of
          the structure. The latest development of Jana concerns magnetic structures.

      Installation
      
    
    
    
    
        Jana2006 for Windows. 
        Execute janainst.msi and follow the instructions. Execute jana2006.exe and
        check the version string in Tools->About Jana2006. 
      
      
        Jana2006 for Windows, old way of installation 
        from janainst.exe. 
        Follow the instructions for Jana2000. For the system environment variable 
        use the name JANA2006DIR instead of JANADIR. 
      
      
        Jana2006 for UNIX. 
        Unix version is not yet available. 
      
      
        Jana2000 for Windows. 
        Execute the self-extracting archive janainst.exe. Before the extraction 
        choose installation directory. After the extraction go to Control panel 
        - System - Advanced - Environment variables and set the system-wide 
        environment variable JANADIR to the name of the installation directory. 
        Go to Display Properties - Effects and make sure Clear type fonts 
        are not used for smoothing edges of screen fonts. 
        Execute jana2000.exe. 
        
For upgrade execute the self-extracting archive janainst.exe and choose the same installation directory where the original version of Jana2000 has been installed.
      For upgrade execute the self-extracting archive janainst.exe and choose the same installation directory where the original version of Jana2000 has been installed.
        Jana2000 for UNIX, fresh installation. 
        Requisities: FORTRAN compiler, C compiler, SDK for X11. 
        Download jana2000Pack.exe and put it one level above the future 
        installation directory (for jana2000Pack.exe in directory xxx, the 
        installation directory will be xxx/jana2000). Start csh or tcsh, 
        execute `source jana2000Pack.exe' and follow instructions
        of the installation procedure. No JANADIR is necessary if the installation
        stays in the default directory. 
      
      
        Common troubleshooting for Windows.
        
      - Installation from janainst.exe: Make sure that JANADIR or JANA2006DIR contains correct name of installation directory.
- Installation from CD: Make sure that files copied from CD are not read-only.
- Jana2000 cannot be used with Clear type fonts.
- Installation directory should not be Desktop (too complicated pathname) or flashdisk (too slow)
- Installation from janainst.msi over older version installed from 
            janainst.exe: in most cases it runs normally. The installation procedure sets 
            automatically system environment variable JANA2006DIR but does not 
            define the user environment variable. In case of version mismatch please 
            ensure that the user variable JANA2006DIR is undefined. 
            
 In rare cases the installation from janainst.msi leaves the original files unchanged. This can be recognized in Tools->About where the version string is not updated after installation. In such case the installation directory of Jana2006 should be deleted (keep copy of ini and hst file) as well as the user or system environment variable JANA2006. Then repeat installation from janainst.msi.
        Common troubleshooting for UNIX. 
        Make sure SDK for X11 is installed, in most Linux distributions
        only run-time libraries are present by default. The installed Jana 
        executable cannot be moved from the default installation directory 
        jana2000 without special arrangements.

      Ad hoc workshops on Jana
      
    
    
        Ad hoc workshops are small two days workshops organized in Praha by authors of Jana software.
        As soon as five people register for one or more topics listed below and some overlap in topics is found 
	    we shall create program of the
        workshop and discuss it with the participants. Then we shall fix the date of the workshop and arrange accomodation.
        Registration to a workshop with fixed program and/or date is possible for another five participants.
        Participants pay themselves all their expenses and they are expected to bring their own laptops with 
        Windows. 
        The registration fee is zero (in Czech Crowns). Workshop certificates 
        are issued by our skilled artists on demand.
      
      
        Topics
	    
      - (INT1) Introduction to Jana software, solution of simple 3d structures
- (INT2) Introduction to modulated structures, solution of simple 4d structures
- (PWD) Refinement of powder data
- (TW) Twins and multiphases of 3d and modulated structures
- (CHF) Application of charge flipping to 3d and modulated structures
- (DIS) Disorder, mixed sites, application of rigid body refinement for disordered structures
- (RIG) Rigid body refinement and application of local symmetry
- (CRENEL) Discontinuous modulation functions (crenel and sawtooth)
- (COMM) Commensurate structures
- (COMP) Composite structures (i.e. samples with two coexisting lattices)
- (FIVE) Five dimensional structures
- (MAG) Magnetic structures
- (ELD) Electron diffraction
- any other topic (please specify)
        Registration
        By e-mail to Michal Dusek (dusek@fzu.cz) with list of selected topics, rated by importance. 
        Although the workshop can only have four topics (one topic takes 1/2 of day) the number of 
        selected topics can be higher, it helps finding overlaps. Please indicate if you have already 
		experience with Jana software. New users should select the topic "INT1". For new users of Jana 
		it is also possible to do INT1 as a homework and participate in a more advanced workshop (INT1 
        cookbook will be sent by e-mail on request).
