A novel method is presented of simulating dynamic diffraction in distorted crystals using a fast Fourier transform based beam propagation approach.
Open access
The novel SM,|ρ| phasing algorithm has been adapted to the determination of anomalous scattering substructures from single-wavelength anomalous diffraction (SAD) data of protein crystals and successfully tested on data sets mostly retrieved from the Protein Data Bank.
Open access
The simulation of a dark-field X-ray microscopy experiment using wavefront propagation techniques and numerical integration of the Takagi–Taupin equations is shown. The approach is validated by comparing with measurements of a near-perfect diamond crystal containing a single stacking-fault defect.
Given two three-dimensional lattices oriented so that they share a three-dimensional sublattice, a method for determining planes with high densities of coinciding lattice nodes is presented. The densest planes are determined for coinciding cubic lattices.
The simplest (lowest transitivity) piecewise-linear tangles of extended nθ graphs, including 1-, 2- and 3-periodic linked tangles, are presented.
Pseudosymmetric operations in R3 crystals and their role in generating ambiguous electron diffraction patterns are discussed.
