One more cent to the recent discussion on the Hofman potential. Alan, you have stopped the discussion saying that you are responsible for the content of this mailing list. I hope not. If some journals publish the opinions of their readers they always add a notice that "the ideas expressed in thi

Yes, I fully agree with you, Alan. Yes, the person signing messages to the Rietveld list is responsible for their content. As you know, many mailing lists are filtered by a "moderator". This is also the case for printed journals, which you gave as an example - the editor chooses to print letters,

Jasminka, As someone who has never really solved anything hard but who dreams of being able to, I am happy to meet you. A good place to start is Armel LeBail's web page. He has a nice description of part of the process, http://www.cristal.org/ and suggestions for some FREE software for solving

2004-07-09 Thread Peter Zavalij
Dear Santu, GSAS being the most advanced and the most updated Rietveld refinement program (from my "narrow" point of view) is not quite user friendly -- it may not always converge. If too many parameters that correlate to so degree are refined it may diverge. Therefore parameters should be r
