Dear all, According to Caglioti relation, the dimensions of U,V,W are as (angle)^2. So, should we treat their units as (centidegree)^2 in GSAS profile menu? Thanking all prasun

According to Caglioti relation, the dimensions of U,V,W are as (angle)^2. Quick question - does anyone have a trick to stop the Cagliotti formula going negative? Prodd currently has a habit of bugging out on a sqrt(negative) and I'm wondering how other folks worked around that, or if I've

Back to basics. Caglioti Function is instrument function and is often times used inappropriately. Just my two cents worth (and these days, 2-cents ain't worth much...) Frank May St. Louis, Missouri U.S.A. From: Jon Wright [mailto:wri...@esrf.fr] Sent:

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

From what I've read of Cagliotti's paper, the V term should always be negative; or am I reading it wrong? Additionally, there is some good work on the use of the Cagliotti (and TCHZ) functions in the paper by Young and Desai; it also goes over how to incorporate sample dependent terms into the
