- 2. Enter in our file manager https://www.onworks.net/myfiles.php?username=XXXXX with the username that you want.
- 3. Upload this application in such filemanager.
- 4. Start any OS OnWorks online emulator from this website, but better Windows online emulator.
- 5. From the OnWorks Windows OS you have just started, goto our file manager https://www.onworks.net/myfiles.php?username=XXXXX with the username that you want.
- 6. Download the application and install it.
- 7. Download Wine from your Linux distributions software repositories. Once installed, you can then double-click the app to run them with Wine. You can also try PlayOnLinux, a fancy interface over Wine that will help you install popular Windows programs and games.
Wine is a way to run Windows software on Linux, but with no Windows required. Wine is an open-source Windows compatibility layer that can run Windows programs directly on any Linux desktop. Essentially, Wine is trying to re-implement enough of Windows from scratch so that it can run all those Windows applications without actually needing Windows.

Virtual Reflectometer
DESCRIPTION
With Virtual Reflectometer (VR), you can simulate the basic alignment scans of a basic X ray reflectometer (diffractometer) with a Goebel mirror using ray tracing.
With this program, you can characterize reflectometers and get a reflectometer-dependent overillumination correction for X Ray Reflectivity (XRR) scans.
The pogram serves as an educational tool for explaining alignment and for a proper overillumination correction of XRR data. !!Paper will be referenced!!.
VR can be run by code in Matlab or as a standalone app. It's not necessary to have Matlab installed on your computer if you want to use the standalone app (Download button).
You can find a documentation in the wiki tab.
The program is freshly released. So feedback is very welcome in order to improve it. You can write a discussion entry in the wiki tab or write me a mail to [email protected]
Features
- Overillumination (Footprint) Correction of X-Ray Reflectivity data
