Dear Antonio and Norberto,

Thank you, both of you.

It uses a single SRM and a single instrument, and a single geometry,
(snip)
if you consider thermal expansion of the detector box for Delta T <~ 1 deg.

I strongly agree with Antonio's plan. If I had budget, I should performed them. (FYI, we had no budget in the Sci. Rep. article as you can see in the Acknowledements
part. On the contrary, I spent my pocket money.)

Anyway, I wish some of you conduct these kind of experiments and find
some more important things.


As for the patent. They use a criterion SUM(ABS(Delta(2theta))=0. This
is the 1-norm of the angle difference.
The 2-norm SQRT(SUM((Delta(2theta)**2))=0  would be as effective or more
and they are not patenting it.
Generally one can use (SUM(ABS(Delta(2theta))**p))**(1/p)=0, where p is
any real number >= 1 (this defines the p-norm). The ABS is necessary if
p is not an even integer.
So if you think that the 1-norm is better, but is patented, then use the
1.001-norm. ;-)

One comment.
I noticed "an issue" by myself and have thought for several years.
You learnd about the issue from the article and have thought for a few days.

One simple question.
Is the purpose of this mailing list for business?
I have thought that it is for discussion about the fundamental research
(and some announcements about them). So, I posted to introduce our research
article on 2017/11/14 11:54 (JST). I hope to focus on discussion about the research.


Best wishes,
Masami
