Thanks very much for this interesting discussion.
We should have that more often.

Ahh. The history of science. I've always wondered how these naming
conventions get decided. Who is the authority on what gets named after
who? Historically, it seems to vary a lot.

Dear All,
I wonder about the conventions using Friedel vs Bijvoet pair.
a) there are no differences. As long as h = -h, it's a Friedel
or a Bijvoet pair. They are the same.
b) A Friedel pair is any reflection h = -h including hR = -h, i.e.
including centric reflections.
A Bijvoet pair
Friedel pair is strictly F(hkl) and F(-h,-k,-l).
Bijvoet pair is F(h) and any mate that is symmetry-related to F(-h), e.g.,
F(hkl) and F(-h,k,-l) in monoclinic.
There are always anomalous differences, though they can be unmeasurably
small.

I've always thought that a Bijvoet pair is any pair for which an
anomalous difference could be observed. This includes Friedel pairs
(h h-bar), but it also includes pairs of the form h h', where h'
is symmetry-related to h-bar. Thus Friedel pairs are a subset of all
possible Bijvoet

This statement is
Let's try this again, with definitions, and pls scream if I am wrong:
a) Any reflection pair hR = h forms a symmetry related pair.
R is any one of G point group operators of the SG.
This is a set of reflections (S). Their amplitudes
are invariably the same. They do not even show up

I quote from these pages:
Bijvoet pairs are Bragg reflections which are true symmetry
equivalents to a Friedel pair. These true symmetry equivalents
have *equal amplitudes, even in the presence of anomalous scattering*.
Sounds more like centric or perhaps simply symmetry related to me.

There was a mistake in the letter that listed the Bijvoet pairs
for a monoclinic space group and that is confusing you. Let me
try.
The equivalent positions for a B setting monoclinic are
h,k,l; -h,k,-l.
The Friedel mates for the general position (h,k,l) are (-h,-k,-l).
This means

This is poorly worded. I would change it to

Maybe you meanh' = hR
R is any one of G point group operators of the SG.
