Domains of values of x, its u and the inversion-distinguishing power: (a) the physical domain of x; (b) the statistical domain of x; (c) the domain of x where the crystal and the model are inverted one with respect to the other; (d) the statistical domain of a crystal untwinned by inversion; (e) the statistical domain of a crystal twinned by inversion; (f) the domain of strong inversion-distinguishing power; (g) the domain of enantiopure-sufficient inversion-distinguishing power; (h) the domain of weak inversion-distinguishing power. For (f), (g) and (h), the horizontal lines are of varying intensity. In the part of the line which is black, the inversion-distinguishing power may be deduced from the value of u alone. In the part of the line which is grey, the inversion-distinguishing power may not be deduced from the value of u alone. In (b), (d) and (e), arbitrary values of u have been drawn and in practical applications the value of u yielded by the experiment must be used.
