Hello,

I recently started using the xplor-nih package.

I wanted to use the sani statement to include residual dipolar

couplings and I found some definitions in helplib/nih-sani and

read one of the references that describe the inclusion of rdcs

for NMR structural caculation (Clore GM, Gronenborn AM & Tjandra N,

JMR 131, 159-162, 1998).

Here are my questions:

1) can it be that there is a typing mistake in the nih-sani file:

COEFficient <real> <real> <real>
 {* coef: <DFS> <anisotropy> <rhombicity>
    !a0+a1*(3*cos(theta)^2-1)+a2*(3/2)*sin(theta)^2*cos(2*phi)
   DFS = a0, rhombicity = a2*a1, anisotropy = a1 *}

should the rhombicity not be a2/a1 instead of a2*a1?

2) in some of the input files I found negative values for the

coefficient referred to a a1. I expected a1 to correspond to

Da (the axial component) of the tensor) and therefore to be

positive?  Or is a1 something else?

For all this, I assumed that estimation of R (3rd coefficient) and

 Da (2nd coefficeint)  can be done as described in the above reference.

If am wrong or if there is another reference for the sani statement,

I would be glad if yo would tell me.

Many thanks and best regards,

Sonja
