Re: [ccp4bb] data collection

Any reciprocal lattice point (relp) not in the blind region will cross the Ewald sphere twice. This is because it follows a closed circular path that passes through a closed surface. Must be one "in" and one "out". However, even in P1 there is always a Friedel mate, and that is "symmetry equ

Hi All, I wish to confirm that when we collect native dataset 0-360 for a protein crystal (P1 space group) , the redundancy could very well be >2 since many reciprocal points cross Ewald sphere twice, right ? Thanks a lot. John

A bit of praise for Ptolemy's integrity, however, is that he didn't fudge the equant circle issue (I am not sure whether others maybe knew about it previously, actually). That was really the monkey wrench in the whole theory, and without that, probably we would still be geocentric. It would have be
