PLATON HOMEPAGE

See also Absorption Correction Menu

Correction for absorption of a sphere shaped crystal.

The correction is based on 'Dwiggens, Acta Cryst (1975), A31, 395'

Two data input files are required:

1. name.ins : instruction file:

2. name.hkl : reflection file: (hkl F^2 sig(F^2) + direction cosines) with SHELXL HKLF 4 format (3I4, 2F8.2,I4,6F8.5).

Input data on name.ins

TITL titl
CELL lambda a b c alpha beta gamma
HKLF 4
ABSS mu radius

Notes:

• mu and r should have the same (reciprocal) dimension.

• r is radius, not diameter !

Calculations are invoked with:

platon name.ins

The corrected data are on: name.hkp
