====== Features of Takin ======

{{ :takin:features2.svg?nolink&180}}

  * Live display of the reciprocal and real lattice, and the unit cell. The latter, if atomic positions and the spacegroup are given.
  * Drag-and-drop manipulation of the scattering triangle and instrument configuration.
  * Bragg peaks in the reciprocal space view show the structure factor and the corresponding Brillouin zone.
  * {{:takin:reciprocal.png?480|}}
  * Live calculation and display of the triple-axis instrumental resolution based on the current scattering triangle.
  * Supported resolution functions: Cooper-Nathans, Popovici, Eckold-Sobolev, and Violini (for TOF).
  * {{:takin:ellipses.png?480|}}
  * Network interface to real instruments. Currently supported protocols: NICOS (MLZ) and SICS (PSI).
  * Resolution convolution simulation and fitting to measured data given an external Python or Julia model for the dynamical structure factor S(Q,E).
  * Available for Windows, macOS and Linux
  * Opensource (GNU GPL v2)
