Dear Riccardo, You can do this indirectly by fixing (y l o l f) the parameters you wish to keep constant. I believe that RM11, RM22 and RM33 are likely to correspond to you lattice parameters, and the cross terms to your angles. However my memory is hazy, but if you have a quick play about

Ana, in Gsas you can choose two types of correction methods: March-Dollase and Spherical Harmonics ones. They are based on different physical description of the texture in the powder, so before clicking blindy gsas keys, read the papers on the physical approximation of each model: March-Dollase m

Hi, In clay minerals sometimes you have some interstratification, this is a problem because I am not aware of any Rietveld program to model this (I hope I am wrong..). The effect is well described by Bish and Post in a book published in the '90s. I can dig up the reference if you need it, Re

WIDPLT will not properly handle the type 4 profile function. Marc's suggestion is good, but it works only for a limited set of reflections, but not the general case. Furthermore, LY is for Cauchy (Lorentz) broadening, this is true with the Sxx terms only when eta=1. With eta=0 this broadening is G

Matt, You found a typo in the manual. The equations for u & v need a "sigma^2" in the first term in the numerator. The form should match the equations for r & s just above. The code inside GSAS has it right. Thanks - at least I know people are watching. Bob Von Dreele At 10:50 AM 1/17/01 +,
