RE: UVW - how to avoid negative widths?

2009-03-19 Thread David, WIF (Bill)
Hi, I sent this to Jon this afternoon and thought that I'd pass the e-mail on. Here goes ... You'll probably find a pre-PRODD CCSL subroutine that I wrote that goes along the lines of width^2 = u^2 * ( tan(theta)-tan(theta_m) )^2 + w^2 Two neat things about this equation is that it

RE: About zero counts etc.

Title: RE: About zero counts etc. Dear all, Jon's right - when the counts are very low - i.e. zeroes and ones around - then the correct Bayesian approach is to use Poisson statistics. This, as Jon said, has been tackled by Antoniadis et al. (Acta Cryst. (1990). A46, 692-711

Hi Jon, A lot of what you'll need is in the back of the International Tables Vol. A in Chapter 15 which goes under the snappy title of Euclidean and affine normalisers of space groups and their use in crystallography. From memory, earlier incarnations of Vol. A do not have this chapter. Bill
