hen save the new emmission profile for use in subsequent refinements. Note that the CoKb emmission line area is just another parameter to be added when creating an instrument profile function. Dipo Omotoso -Original Message----- From: Leandro Bravo [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sat 5/26

Emission profile determination using the TOPAS software

Hi all, again In al my refinements in TOPAS I use the emission profile present in the lam fold of TOPAS. The emission profile is CoKa7 (the D4 that we use, use a Co tube, radiation), but in our obtained DRX patterns the CoKb peaks appear and are becoming a problem in TOPAS, because it is affec

Hydroxiapatite, carboapatite and fluorapatite - Request of STR files

Hi all, I´m refining a sample which contains a hydroxycarbofluorapatite (solid solution). I´m refining it using CIF files from the ICSD, but it´s not working so well, because they don´t have the file for the hydroxycarbofluorapatite. So I´m using in the TOPAS the following files: fluorapatite

I know that refining the atoms positions is ´´too much´´, exagerated. But is the only way I can make the calculated DRX pattern fit with the measured one. There must a problem in the instrument details since I´m using Fundamental Parameters (FP) for peak shape, the values I put in the instrumen
