Dear Colleagues, I am very grateful to everyone who contributed to the discussion regarding phasing statistics that I initiated. I certainly found it very informative. Below is a summary of the technical responses that I regarding this problem.
1) Use some of the statistics that SHELXD and SHELXE do provide (e.g. CC/CCfree for SHELXD, CCfree and connectivity for SHELXE). These could be compared to statistics produced for well determined structures (e.g. see Debreczeni et al. 2003 Acta Cryst. D., D59, 688-696). 2) Take the results from SHELX and put them into SHARP to generate the statistics. 3) Take the results from SHELX and put them into phaser_er, CRANK, or MLPHARE (perhaps with more difficulty) to generate the statistics. Thanks to Rick Lewis, Boaz Shaanan, Ed Lowe and Eleanor Dodson for suggestions. Cheers, Nic Harmer [For anyone interested, I took approaches 1 and 2. I got a good figures for phasing power from SHARP (somehow I failed to find the Rcullis, never mind), quoted the FOM at the end of SHELX, and the values for CC/CCfree from SHELXD, and the map contrast in the original and inverted hands from SHELXE. These all looked quite convincing, so hopefully my referees will be happy.]
