I guess it was since summer and was only in cases if you gave
anom formfactor SE <number> <number>
If you did not then nothing was done.

Could be.
I have attached a plot of the net scattering factor for the two
sets of values.
I am curious as to exactly which version[s] of atomsf had the wrong
value for A1. The various old copies I have lying around on my disks
all contain the correct value.

Just curious.

Well, I guess one shouldn't change versions of refmac in the

of a structure refinement. What are the major
differences between .
0034 and .0066 ? I noted that form factors for the Se
atom have
changed dramatically even though I'm using the same " anom
formfactor>> SE -8.13 5.05 " command. Is this because the
program is now using
the wavelength on the .MTZ file ?
with .0034:
SE 8.8706
2.4098 5.8196 0.2726
3.9731 15.2372
4.3543 43.8163 2.8409
The first coefficient here is wrong.
with .0066:
SE 17.0006
2.4098 5.8196 0.2726
3.9731 15.2372
4.3543 43.8163 -11.7969
These are the values given for a1, b1, ... a4, b4 in Table 6.1.1.4
of International Tables for Crystallography Volume C (1995).
The value of c (-11.7969) corresponds to an f' value of
-14.6378 (= -11.7969 - 2.8409)
This could only be possible at the inflection point of the Se
anomalous scattering curve, and only for a beam with a very narrow
bandwidth. Current generation beamlines more
typically yield an
effective f' of -5e to -10e in practice.
We have corrected it. It was due to double addition of f' (one
from
anom formfactor and one from a la crossec calculation). Now it
should
not happen
