8.2 Data files
Some components require external data files, e.g. atomic form factors, element-specific absorption/refraction data from the NIST database, or multilayer/crystal reflectivity curves. Such files distributed with McXtrace are located in the data sub-directory of the library and are accessible to any component using the shared library read routines without needing local copies.
| McXtrace/data | Description |
| Al.txt, He.txt, etc. | Data files from the NIST database (covering the elements with \(Z\in [1..92]\)) to be used for absorption and refraction. |
| FormFactors.txt | Atomic form factors for elements with \(Z\in [1..92]\). |
| Ref_W_B4C.txt | Reflectivity of a W-B4C multilayer. |
| Ref_W_Si.txt | Reflectivity of a W-Si multilayer. |
| Table 8.1.: | Data files of the McXtrace library. |
