Acknowledgements

Atomsk uses the LAPACK library, whose authors are greatly acknowledged.

I address special thanks to the following persons for their contributions to Atomsk (affiliations correspond to the time of the first contribution):

• Juri Barthel, RWTH Aachen, Germany, for implementing the space groups, adding the support of CEL files, improving the support of CIF files, and for translating the program's messages to German.

• Philippe Carrez, University of Lille, France, for implementing a mode for computing the Nye tensor.

• Emmanuel Clouet, CEA, France, for sharing his code Babel for the construction of dislocation loops.

• Adham Hashibon, Fraunhofer-IWM, Freiburg, Germany, for general ideas and discussions about the implementation of many features.

• Eva Marie Kalivoda, Fraunhofer-IWM, Freiburg, Germany, for adding the support of SIESTA XV files.

• Srinivasan Mahendran, University of Lille, France, for his help with the implementation of a cell decomposition algorithm, which makes neighbor search faster.

• Matous Mrovec, Fraunhofer-IWM, Freiburg, Germany, for helping with the implementation of anisotropic elasticity for building dislocations.

Finally, I thank bug hunters, whose messages helped improve the reliability and accuracy of the code:
