Dear Dr. Sato,

You can try to run Fullprof putting ATZ = 0.00 for the fases in control
file (*.pcr ). Then the program will automatically calculate the Atz
values. Atz is the mass of the unit cell in atomic units.

Ex:
!Nat Dis Ang Pr1 Pr2 Pr3 Jbt Irf Isy Str Furth       ATZ    Nvk Npr More
   2   0   0 1.0 1.0 1.0   0   0   0   0   0        0.00   0   7   0

Ensure that you give  the atom´s occupancies (if full) according (or
proportional to):
occ =Ns/Ng,
where:
Ns= site multiplicity of the Wyckoff position of  the atom;
Ng =multiplicity of a general position of the space group.

Fullprof assumes that the first atom of the  list is fully occupied  to
autom. calculate ATZ values.

Carlos Andre.
