if I remember well, Fd-3m and 5.43Å. BTW, don't trust the flat plate sample distributed with your Philips goniometer, it is terribly grainy (you can see it with the naked eye) and you will never get a reasonable Rietveld fit with it! miguel On 2 Feb 2005 at 15:40, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:

Hi Stephen, make sure that you use the second (centrosymmetric) setting in space group F d -3 m (no.227), i.e. Si at Wyckoff position 8a and coordinates: 1/8 1/8 1/8 in the Rietveld refinement. If you use the first setting and the 8a coordinates: 0 0 0 as coordinates the program will run

Does anyone know any way of extracting Rf values from a GSAS powder data refinement? I can't find any mention of it in the manual. Thanks, jools

Run program rfactor. You get the choice of computing on F**2 or F. Brian Does anyone know any way of extracting Rf values from a GSAS powder data refinement? I can't find any mention of it in the manual.

Jools, GSAS gives R(F^2)in the .LST file for each powder histogram assuming the Fo extraction flag is on (default). Generally R(F) = 0.5* R(F^2). Bob Von Dreele R.B. Von Dreele IPNS Division Argonne National Laboratory Argonne, IL 60439-4814 -Original Message- From: Jools

Dear all, Thank you very much for your information. I think the one I am using is Si[111]. It was used for checking the linearity of the diffractometer. I just curious to see some rietveld refinement can be practised myself. I got R-factor (R(F2)) ca. 15% and the simulated PXRD from Si
