[ccp4bb] CCP4-JHBuild: how to build both static and shared libs?

2014-07-08 Thread Alastair Fyfe
Is there a JHBuild setting for requesting both static and shared libs? The default seems to only build *.so(s) and setting _build_static=True in conf.py only yields *.a(s). Thanks, Alastair Fyfe

[ccp4bb] off topic: Crystallization robots

2014-07-08 Thread Scott Pegan
In the process of acquiring a crystallography robot for the laboratory. I have narrowed along capability and budgetary constraints to either an Formulatrix NT8, or a Art Robbins Gryphon. I know the Art Robbins instrument characteristics pretty well, does anyone have any experience/advice on the

[ccp4bb] question about powder diffraction

2014-07-08 Thread Kianoush Sadre-Bazzaz
Hi If a sample of powder crystal (say Nickel) is shot with monochromatic x-rays, one will observe reflections from planes that satisfy Bragg's Law. For Ni the first four planes are (111, 200, 202, 311) with 2theta (44, 52, 76, 93 degrees) respectively. Why doesn't one observe a reflection

The plane will scatter, and all atoms in the plane will scatter in phase if angle of incidence equals angle of reflection. this is how a mirror reflects. Furthermore all the parallel planes will also reflect at this angle. Trouble is the beams scattered from the different parallel planes are

Yes, the way I like to think of it as a double condition, the reflection‐in‐a‐mirror condition *plus* the special condition imposed by Bragg’s Law. This is why I often prefer the unfashionable spelling “reflexion”. -- Ian ◎ Me too. Actually reflexion (but the verb is reflect) is the

I thought (I think I was told that way early during my PhD studies) that reflexion/reflection is a matter of British/American spelling. In fact Merriam-Webster Dictionary says just that: Definition ofREFLEXION chiefly British variant ofreflection and the American Heritage and

Dear all, The downstream end of this thread seems to have drifted into learned considerations of spelling, so I am getting back to this early reply. I am surprised that nobody has mentioned the role of the wavelength in all this: there is no way that one can directly link the first
