Dear Jae-Ho

The thermal parameters of the magnetic moments are identical to the thermal parameters of the nuclei which they are attached to (along with the x,y,z positions and occupancies). Normally they will refine much better from the nuclear intensities which should extend to higher Q.

Dear Rietvelders,

I have a question, particularly to experts in magnetic structure refinements. When does one need to refine anisotropic thermal factors for the magnetic moments? We have a set of data, on which we work hard to extract physically meaningful magnetic structures. The intensities suggest that we need to use anisotropic thermal factors for the magnetic moments, which the FullProf program allows. It is however difficult to get a clear picture what it should mean physically. Any comments will be appreciated.

Best regards,
Jae-Ho
