 VESTA is a 3D visualization program for structural models, volumetric data such as electron/nuclear densities, and crystal morphologies.

+You can find more details on the [[http://jp-minerals.org/vesta/en/ | VESTA homepage]]. Some of the novel features of VESTA are listed below.
+  *     Deal with multiple structural models, volumetric data, and crystal morphologies in the same window.
+  *     Support multiple tabs corresponding to files.
+  *     Support multiple windows with more than two tabs in the same process.
+  *     Deal with virtually unlimited number of objects such as atoms, bonds polyhedra, and polygons on isosurfaces (theoretical limit on 32bit operating system is 1,073,741,823)
+  *     Support lattice transformation from conventional to non-conventional lattice by using matrix. The transformation matrix is also used to create superlattice and sublattice.
+  *     Visualize interatomic distances and bond angles that are restrained in Rietveld analysis with RIETAN-FP.
+  *     Transparent isosurfaces can be overlap with structural models.
+  *     Isosurface can be colored on the basis of another physical quantity.
+  *     Arithmetic operations among multiple volumetric data files.
+  *     High quality smooth rendering of isosurfaces and sections.
+  *     Export high-resolution graphic images exceeding Video card limitation.
+In this project, we use VESTA to look at our crystal structures, check our cif input files, and generate a list of expected peaks for a given structure.
