Re: Negative Biso / absorption in TOPAS.

2010-02-10 Thread Alan Hewat
1. Is absorption indeed the most likely cause of this problem or are there other possibilities? 2. How do we model absorption in TOPAS? Which keyword do we use and what are reasonable values for the parameters in the expression? 1. You will find discussions of negative B-factors

accessing rawfile headers with TOPAS

Hello Rietvelders, I have a question for the TOPAS Guru's: Are the raw file headers (such as z-drive, temperature etc.) are accessible with TOPAS 4.x? Obviously these can be extracted with other software (such as EVA) or by converting to UXD format, but it would be nice

Hi Shishir. I am no expert in TOPAS so can't help directly. However I would recommend looking at a paper by Graham Stinton and John Evans (Journal of Applied Crystallography, 40, 87, (2007)). It provides a good intro to the reasons for parametric Rietveld refinement and some
