.. include:: /substitutions.rst .. _phaseshiftplots: Phaseshifts-plots.pdf ===================== The Phaseshifts-plots.pdf file is generated during the initialization, and serves purely for information. It displays the phase shifts that occur when an electron of a given energy and angular momentum number *L* scatters at an atom in a given site. One plot is generated for each site and element that can occupy that site. The data is displayed exactly as found in the :ref:`PHASESHIFTS` file, without any processing. The order of the plots is the same as in the :ref:`PHASESHIFTS` files, and reflects the order that |calc| expects to find for the elements and/or sites. If you supplied :ref:`PHASESHIFTS` manually, instead of generating them automatically, make sure that the phase shifts have been correctly assigned to their given elements/sites.
