Dear Daniel, with all due respect, I do believe that you are making several mistakes in your argument. English is not my native tongue, but I suspect that there is a substantial difference between "author" and "signatory". What people are asked to do here is essentially to sign a petition, not t

Dear Dr Himmel, I certainly agree that a scientist getting into the nitty-gritty of a field outside of their training can make quite silly mistakes. The link you have provided to us makes an excellent example of your point. Dr Akasofu is a trained space scientist who studied the aurora bor

Dear Daniel. I really understand your point of view and I must say that I agree with it, at certain extent. Science is all about evidence and not what we (sometimes) want to see or want to believe. You are completely right when you say that, inside academia, evidence should be always discussed

Agreed. I support green new deal and I think we should be doing all we can to combat climate change, not because I have studied it and concluded it is a problem but because some very smart people have, and have come to that conclusion. But I would not sign a letter saying that I have concluded,

You should be able to make a map with FFT by assigning F1 to your Fcalc and PHI to your Phicalc, if not with the gui, then certainly with the command line. You will need to make it cover your coordinates by ticking a gui option or running extend in the command line. Sent from Yahoo Mail on Andr

Hi Chandra, If I remember correctly, the SSRL beam lines 12-2 and 14-1 allow kappa offset plus you can swing out the detector. You might have to come up with a special collection strategy, that you collect in resolution bins to avoid overlaps. Jürgen P.S. my previous messages got blocked, let

I agree with Ed that focusing on the detector might be better than on the crystal. An alternative is to reduce the beam divergence which might be easier on some beamlines. The idea is to ensure the instrument parameters (e.g. beam size, beam divergence, detector distance) and data collection p
