Hi,

The origin of this was exactly what Andy Baldwin said at
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.science.nmr.relax.devel/5410/focus=5448
- that there are many different tau_CPMG definitions and there is an
error in one of the equations in the original paper.  The code in
relax is however correct.  The eta_scale value should be
0.35355339059327373.  Feel free to fix the equations in the
documentation of the wiki, manual and lib.dispersion.cr72 docstring.
I wrote these before the code was fully tested and hence there is now
a mismatch.  As for using 2.0**(-3.0/2.0) in the code, this is for the
fastest operation, avoiding the square root.  But now that I look at
it, one mathematical operation can be dropped for speed and the factor
changed to 2.0**(-1.5).

Cheers,

Edward
