_refine_ls.sample_shape_expression

Name:
_refine_ls.sample_shape_expression

Definition:

   
    Formula for the sample thickness distribution when the sample
    thickness is considered during dynamical refinement.

    Reference: Palatinus, L., Petříček, V. & Corrêa, C. A. (2015). Acta
     Cryst. A71, 235-244.

Example:

;
    F(𝜏) = 1 - ( 1 - 𝜏^2^)^1/2^
;
The cumulative distribution function in terms of the reduced thickness 𝜏 of a sample treated as a cylinder. 𝜏 = t/t~m~, where t is the thickness at the point illuminated and t~m~ the maximum thickness of the cylinder (i.e. its diameter).
