Cover illustration: One quadrant of each of four fibre diffraction patterns from disordered polynucleotide fibres. The patterns were calculated for fibres with disorder as follows. Upper left: crystalline (no disorder); upper right: noncrystalline (completely disordered); lower left: discrete rotational disorder and correlated lattice disorder; lower right: random screw disorder.

Synopsis: In an X-ray anomalous-scattering experiment using powder samples, the phases of structure factors cannot be uniquely determined when the crystal is noncentrosymmetric. A new constraint type for this case has been built into the maximum-entropy program MEED, so that now all types of information obtained from such an experiment can be used simultaneously in a MEM calculation of the electron density.
