Thank you for you suggestion, but I'd need a further explanation, if you are experienced with Fullprof.
The manual states: - at pg 53 (Debye-Scherrer geometry): "Monochromator polarisation correction (Cthm and K in LINE 4)" and then "For synchrotron radiation, K must be given (K=0.1)" - at pg. 76: "Cthm - coefficient for monochromator polarisation correction" and then "Rpolarz - polarisation factor" It is not clear to me if the value that you suggest to me (~ 1) is Rpolarz and if Cthm correspond to K and must setted equal to 0.1, since an input referred to as K is not present in the input PCR file.
