Name:
_refine_ls.R_I_factor

Aliases:

_refine_ls_R_I_factor
_refine.ls_R_I_factor_obs

Definition:

   
    Residual factor R(I) for significantly intense reflections (satisfying
    _reflns.threshold_expression) and included in the refinement. This is
    most often calculated in Rietveld refinements of powder data, where it
    is referred to as R~B~ or R~Bragg~.

                  sum | I(meas_gt) - I(calc) |
          R(I) =  -----------------------------
                         sum | I(meas_gt) |

          I(meas_gt) = the net 'observed' intensities
          I(calc)    = the net calculated intensities
          and the sum is taken over the specified reflections.
