Hi Francois Reflection mode at a synchrotron? Does that mean you have the beam coming in at a fixed angle with respect to the specimen, and then collecting all the angles?
Because of the change in specimen volume with angle, you need to modify the calculated intensities, as most (all?) Rietveld programs assume constant volume. Have a look at a previous paper of mine https://espace.curtin.edu.au/handle/20.500.11937/50104 and in particular, §2.1 Flat-plate asymmetric reflection.
