EMPIRE-II

EMPIRE GUI - ZVView panel

Downloads

  • EMPIRE-2-19b24.tgz - is the only file, which is strictly required. It contains all sources, scripts, GUI, and other files needed for execution of reaction calculations. The file can be placed anywhere in the file system.
  • setup-emp - is a bash script, which decompresses EMPIRE-II package and compiles it. It makes installation straightforward and is strongly recommended.
  • x4cd.tgz (213 MB) - (March 2008, Ubuntu friendly!) EXFOR library of experimental data (as of January 2007) loaded into the MySQL database along with the MySQL server, Java environment, retrieval system used by EMPIRE, and a standalone graphic retrieval interface. If downloaded x4cd.tgz should be placed in the same directory as empire-2.19b24.tgz. The library expands to about 582 Mb when uncompressed. EXFOR is needed only for the comparison plots. Users short of the disk space do not need to install this file.
  • HFBCS-lev-dens.tgz (58 MB) - this file contains tabulated level densities calculated in the frame of the Hartree-Fock-BCS approach and provided to RIPL-2 by S. Goriely. It includes level densities at saddle points. The size is about 200 Mb when uncompressed. If downloaded it should be placed in the same directory as empire-2-19b24.tgz. This file is only necessary for calculations using HF-BCS level densities (LEVDEN=3 or FISDEN=0 input option).
  • ActiveTcl8.4.7.0-linux-ix86-108887.tar.gz (9.5 MB) - ActiveTcl package by ActiveState providing complete implementation of Tcl/Tk and itcl needed to run EMPIRE Graphic User Interface (GUI). ActiveTcl package might be ignored if native Tcl/Tk and itcl packages are available on the system. However, use of the ActiveTcl ensures that EMPIRE-GUI functions properly, which might not be a case with native packages. The original site provides free versions of the ActiveTcl package also for Windows and Solaris. For other systems, Tcl/Tk and itcl sources and/or binaries can be downloaded free of charge from: These packages must be installed manually.
