GAMGI (General Atomistic Modelling Graphic Interface) is a program to build, view, and analyze atomic strucures such as molecules, crystals, glasses, liquids, etc. It aims to be useful for: the scientific community working in Atomistic Modelling that needs a graphic interface to build input data and to view and analyse output data, calculated with Ab-Initio and Molecular Mechanics programs; the scientific community at large studying chemistry, physics, materials science, geology, etc., that needs a graphic interface to view and analyse atomic structural information and to prepare images for presentations in classes and seminars; teaching chemistry and physics in secondary schools and universities; science promotion in schools, exhibitions and science museums.

Recent releases


Release Notes: This release includes all the Marching-Cubes / Tetra-Cubes 3D and 2D code needed to render solid orbitals. The 2D code is already debugged and working. New GAMGI mirrors have been added. This release adds structure and info files for beta-quartz, beta-cristobalite, and beta-trydimite.


Release Notes: This release implements Orbital->Copy, Orbital->Link, and Orbital->Remove dialogs, improves the interface for Orbital->Create and all Object->Copy dialogs, and adds Help->Current and Help->Topic documentation for the dialogs Orbital->Create, Orbital->Copy, Orbital->Link, and Orbital->Remove.


Release Notes: All Hydrogen based orbitals from 1s to 6h are now working fine in GAMGI, as clouds of dots above a given density. Default values for threshold density, number of points, and sampling radius were extensively studied for all orbitals to guarantee scientific correctness and optimal visual representations. Solid representations of these orbitals and complex charge descriptions of molecules and crystals, obtained from ab-initio calculations done with other computer packages, are planned to go next.


Release Notes: This release adds all the Laguerre and Legendre functions needed to build Hidrogen-based atomic orbitals up to 5g, in xyz coordinates. It has been successfully tested with dotted models of s,p,d,f,g Hydrogen based orbitals up to 5g. It has good algorithms to build surface models of orbitals. There is an initial version of the dialog Orbital->Create. This release fixes two bugs on importing/exporting clusters and groups to XML files.


Release Notes: This release formally completes the work started in October 2009 with GAMGI 0.14.2 to handle lists of objects everywhere in GAMGI. It fixes bugs in Group->Modify, Plane->Modify, and Direction->Modify, so these tasks are now more solid and powerful for single objects and lists of objects. Upgraded documentation for all Object->Modify task dialogs. Upgraded Help->Current and Help->Topic accordingly. Three more copper oxide superconductor structure and info files have been added.
