Dear PHENIX community: I would like to draw your attention to these two PDF files with the slides that I recently made for a PHENIX workshop (workshop on Neutron crystallography, March 5-6, Japan). The first file (69 of very dense slides) makes a general introduction to crystallographic structure refinement (certainly biased towards how things are done in phenix.refine), plus some introduction to phenix.refine functionality. The second PDF file talks about PHENIX and "quick validation" with the strong accent of why automation is important. In general, I don't like and normally don't do such advertisements, but in this case I believe I can make an exception since I spent too much "of my software development" time on making these slides and they might be instructive for (new) PHENIX users. The links are (the first two!): http://www.phenix-online.org/presentations/neutron_japan_2009/ Thanks, Pavel. PS> Two slides in the first file are borrowed from Sasha Urzhumtsev, and 2-3 slides are borrowed from Paul Adams (second file).
