...in version 5.5 ...

• ic1ion & icf1ion & mcdiff.in file format for $\langle \mathbf S \rangle$ and $\langle \mathbf L \rangle$ - !! Operator sequence changed to Sa Sb Sc La Lb Lc !! (was Sa La Sb Lb Sc Lc)
• mcphas got an option -doeps for magnetostrictive strain calculation using parameters calculated e.g. by makenn -cfph
• there are more examples using cf-phonon interaction
• module phonon: umax restrictino in module phonon done by u= umax * tanh (u/umax) ... this avoids uniform shifts of the crystal
• makenn option -bvk extended to generate a sample bvk constants table
• anisotropy $H=D_{x4} S_x^4 +D_{y4} S_y^4 +D_{z4} S_x^4$ introduced in module so1ion
• made mcphaseexplorer compatible with java 1.8.0 and java 17 at the same time (see batch mpe for linux for options)
• cif2mcphas changed to put phonon module for sipf files which are nonmagnetic
• mcphas.xyt outputs periodicity of supercell
• spins changed to produce for option -f spins_prim.jvx graphics output
• spinsfromq phases correctly introduced for double and triple q structure
