CrystFEL Releases

This PPA can be used to install CrystFEL stable releases.

CrystFEL is a suite of programs for processing diffraction data acquired "serially" in a "snapshot" manner. That means: a large number of individual  diffraction patterns, each corresponding to a random orientation of the  crystal, with little or no rotation or oscillation of the sample. This is exactly the situation encountered when using the technique of Serial Femtosecond Crystallography (SFX) with a free-electron laser source, which is the application CrystFEL is primarily designed for. CrystFEL comprises programs for indexing and integrating diffraction patterns, scaling and merging intensities, simulating patterns, calculating figures of merit for the data and visualising the results.

The alternative packages ending with the -opencl suffix have been compiled with OpenCL support. They cannot be installed alongside their respective non-OpenCL versions.
