James, Though ~15440 is a big number, and a twinning factor of 0.5 is obtained, should data processing for all sets with randomly 1 out of 2 indexing, followed by reindexing all in the other way, and then merging all 2X~15440 give a better control of perfect twinning? Lijun On Feb 11, 20

Comparing images taken at 0 and 180 gives the impression of a mirror flip about an axis perpendicular to the rotation axis. This is because Friedel mates are directly across the origin from each other and the Ewald sphere is curved. Lets say you have a vertical rotation axis. Choose a spot at phi

Does the diffraction pattern change if you shoot the crystal from phi = n or n+180 deg (a la inverse-beam geometry)? I was thinking it was identical, but I am not sure now--is it a mirror image? Maybe different space groups are different? JPK On Fri, Feb 11, 2011 at 10:35 AM, James Holton wrote:

Another potentially useful program, labelit.index, has two features of interest; first it can accept approximately known unit cell dimensions as input, allowing the indexer to select the correct basis vectors from the forest of possibilities. If this suceeds, it will produce the first lattice. Th

The indexing ambiguities do not include anomalous pair confusion because there is no way to rotate the lattice to make every h,k,l overlap with -h,-k,-l. I.E. you can't rotate your left hand to superimpose it on your right. The only way to mix those up is to change the sign of some detector g

I'd try first Mosflm, a cup of tea and two images. I'll get to the cup in a minute. Read two images or three which are 90 degrees apart (three incase you have a cubic space group). Then take a sip and start manually removing spots which you believe belong to the other lattice, then index and se

If you make the images available, maybe I can take a look and try to use d*TREK. You will need to be selective about the spots used in indexing. Most programs can add or delete spots manually. You may wish to make the X-ray beam smaller and try to expose only a small volume of one of the crystals.

Dear Xiaoqiang, both HKL2000 and Mosflm allow you to enter the cell and space group explicitly, so you can check yourself on screen whether the data from crystal (2) are indexed by the cell from crystal (1) and vice versa. Tim On Fri, Feb 11, 2011 at 08:03:52AM -0600, Wang, Xiaoqiang wrote: > H
