Hi, The origin of this was exactly what Andy Baldwin said at http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.science.nmr.relax.devel/5410/focus=5448 - that there are many different tau_CPMG definitions and there is an error in one of the equations in the original paper. The code in relax is however correct. The eta_scale value should be 0.35355339059327373. Feel free to fix the equations in the documentation of the wiki, manual and lib.dispersion.cr72 docstring. I wrote these before the code was fully tested and hence there is now a mismatch. As for using 2.0**(-3.0/2.0) in the code, this is for the fastest operation, avoiding the square root. But now that I look at it, one mathematical operation can be dropped for speed and the factor changed to 2.0**(-1.5).
