Good morning Jon, Ah yes that is a good word from quantum mechanics but no it isn’t in the IUCr Dictionary, nor in the Statistical Descriptors section on Recommendations. http://ww1.iucr.org/iucr-top/comm/cnom/statdes/recomm.html
In Laue mode, Xray or neutron, the MPR should be large enough to allow determination of the Lambda curve. This is achieved through repeated measurements of the same hkl at different wavelengths from more than one crystal orientation or its symmetry mates at the same or different crystal orientations. High completeness in Laue especially at low d spacings requires deconvolution of energy multiples and is also helped by repeat measurements at different crystal orientations and a high crystal symmetry.
