Dear all, on top of other peoples remarks and out of interest:
(1) What is the supposed difference between Rmerge and Rsym in your table and what software/tool computed those? Are you sure Rsym is not supposed to be Rpim? There is a slight historical difference between the Rmerge/Rsym notation, but for all purposes of modern area detectors and processing software we tend to call this only Rmerge ... usually. (2) Are your Rmerge/Rmeas values truly exactly 100% in the outer shells? That seems surprising: those values are not intrinsically/mathematically limited to a maximum value of 100% and any program writing them out as 100% might do this by truncating them (so you might want to check). (3) What are the resolution limits for those outer shell values given in parentheses? Often they are given somewhere in such a table, so maybe only missing from your cut-n-paste to the CCP4bb. Cheers Clemens PS: What is wrong by giving R-values as fractions (R/Rfree = 0.240/0.266, Rmeas=0.162) instead of give in them as percentages? All (?) formulas I know of in books, dictionaries and papers don't seem to have this factor of 100 in them ... am I missing a historical/important relevance to this habit?
