Also I did a 'Google vote' for the two terms. 'Structure amplitude' has
11300 hits. 'Structure factor amplitude' has only 4750. So all round I
would say that 'structure amplitude' wins by a considerable margin.
The field of crystagooglography is relatively young,
and standard procedures have not yet been established :-)
Here's what I get:
+"structure factor amplitude" 18,000 hits
+"structure amplitude" 17,100 hits
