Also check if the mean value of the map over the ASU is zero. If so, the map was probably calculated without the 0,0,0 term of the Fourier series, so zero does not represent zero density but rather the mean density. On 03/04/2019 12:43 PM, Ian Tickle wrote: Hi Sen If you multiply the electro

Dear Sen, I may be unaware of special features of these maps, but if they are computed in conventional ways, they lack an F000 term. Therefore the average value of the 2mFo-DFc map is zero, just as if it was a difference map. This may explain why you do not find all the electrons you would be
