Dear Brian,
recently it was pointed out (J. Appl. Cryst. 37 (2004) 123-135) that the approach proposed by Von Dreele can have indeed - under certain circumstances and restrictions to the parameters - a physical meaning, e.g. concentration fluctuations can show up like this, and the type of anisotropy constitutes a special case of the Stephens model.
Best regards

My advice on this question is that one should not use this approach. The Stephens formalism, coded in profile type 4, is better founded by theory. See the GSAS manual and reference to Peter Stephen's J. Appl. Cryst paper from a few years back.

Hello everybody,

i have a question about the GSAS software. Indeed, i would like to know what are exactly the L11, L22, L33....L23 parameters. I saw that these parameters represent the anisotropic microstrain in material. Moreover, there is an empirical expression which uses these parameters as following :

Gamma(L) = L11*h^2 + L22*k^2 + L33*l^2 + 2*L12*hk + 2*L13*hl + 2*L23*kl

I would like to know and understand the physical representation of these parameters and this expression.

Thanks in advance
