Hi Almudena, also, does anyone know how to within Phenix? that's the tool that should do it: http://www.phenix-online.org/documentation/reciprocal_space_arrays.htm Note there is a corresponding utility in the GUI (if I recall correctly under Reflection tools). Pavel

Dear all, I've been approached by a materials student with a petri dish full of big, sturdy, salty, yellow crystals. He claims I have the best kit for single-crystal diffraction on campus. I would very much appreciate advice on how to deal with this, anything in the range from won't work

Hi Andreas - My two cents, from having tried this a couple of times on small molecule crystals that crossed my path: - You can get an answer using only standard macromolecular crystallography programs. It may not be up to the standards of the small molecule community, but that's probably

Andreas, What is your setup? We have a Cu Anode with an R-Axis IV, and just due to the geometry, the maximum resolution we can collect is around 1.4A. That won't do for small molecules. I think if your resolution is worse than something like 0.85A alarm bells start going off. If you can

Dear Andreas, It's a closely guarded secret that the data collection for small molecules is not that different from that for macromolecular crystallography. (Otherwise there's the risk that more macromolecular folks might get hooked to the addictive charm of the small-molecule world!) Just

Dear Andreas, if you find a single crystal, you can use your favourite program for data collection, none of them should have problems with small molecule data. Since data integration only takes the Laue group into account, the space group make no problems, since also the Laue group of a protein

Coincidentally, I just spent my day trying to index a lattice of ~ 10 x 10 x 11 A. Mounting samples: if the compound is stable, just glue it to the end of a steel pin. No muss, no fuss. We had to attenuate our synchrotron beam heavily to make it work; motors can only turn so fast. We did

I am reading an external file, which contains phases and ABCDs in the space group P43212. My file has an asymmetric unit with k= h. Since CCP4 uses a different asymmetric unit with h=k, this requires phase and ABCD coefficients transformation. The transformation seems to be correct for

Centrosymmetric reflections typically have C=0 and D=0, although non-zero values should not matter, as they do not modify phase probabilities for centrosymmetric reflections. Somehow, entering non-zero values for C and D for centrosymmetric reflection creates strange results during
