RE: changing scattering length of element in Fullprof [SEC=UNCLASSIFIED]

2009-04-22 Thread AVDEEV, Maxim
Hi Anna,

It is done with the Nsc flag. An example for CW neutron data (Job=1) is
below. The details for other cases are on the pp.79-80 of the manual.

Cheers

Subject: changing scattering length of element in Fullprof

Can anyone remind me how does one change the scattering length of an 
element when using fullprof?

Thanks

RE: How to add a molecule in GSAS?

2007-10-08 Thread AVDEEV, Maxim
Irvin,

With GSAS discrete D2 molecules can be modeled using rigid body
constraints:

http://www.ccp14.ac.uk/ccp/web-mirrors/ian-swainson/fireside_fuide_to_ri
gid_bodies.pdf

If the molecules are rotationally disordered you might try special form
factors (like spherical shell one implemented in Fullprof)
http://www.ill.fr/dif/Soft/fp/index.html

In the extreme case of disorder you may also try to model continuous
distribution of scattering density with Maximum Entropy Method (for
example with Rietan+Prima)

RE: Convert anisotropic to isotropic thermal displacement

2007-09-24 Thread AVDEEV, Maxim
Ian,

Non-exhaustive list of programs able to convert anisotropic thermal
parameters to isotropic ones

- GRETEP (very easy one-click conversion, imports cif files 
http://www.ccp14.ac.uk/ccp/web-mirrors/lmgp-laugier-bochu/gretep.zip)

- bijcalc from the GSAS suite (easy to use via EXPGUI which can import cif
files)

- Mercury (imports cir, shelx, pdb formats; displays Ueq's calculated from
Uij's; http://www.ccdc.cam.ac.uk/products/mercury/)

- Cryscon (shareware, all kinds of transformations)

Hi All,

I am looking for a small program to allow me to convert anisotropic thermal
parameters to an equivalent isotropic value. 

Can anyone send me such a program (or at least point me to the location of
one).

  
Cheers

Magnus,
If you use Windows Ctrl+Ins -> Shift+Ins should work.

RE: Structure of Potassium chloride

2006-06-22 Thread AVDEEV, Maxim
Google can be even more useful, i.e typing

"potassium chloride" mineral name

gives "sylvite". And the American Mineralogist Crystal Structure Database 
(http://rruff.geo.arizona.edu/AMS/amcsd.php) gives for "sylvite" 31 records 
with complete structure description.

Title: RE: DBWS vs other refinement programs





Venkat,


Following Vincent's reply, here is one more piece of statistics
http://danse.cacr.caltech.edu/polls/results.php?sid=22


Of course, the number of people using Rietveld software is more than 269 (number of answers in the survey) and even more than 771 (number of subscribers of this list) but still the results have some representativity.

It seems that user friendliness matters, but only if one doesn't have to pay for it.


Cheers,
Max
