Hi again,

Sorry, in my last mail I meant "... it would also be nice if ... the progress panel during refinement showed statistics for the neutron data as well as for the X-ray data". The neutron statistics are of course shown at the end. I'm a bit tired...

Best wishes
Derek

Hi Derek,

did you really collected anomalous neutron data? I doubt. Then how you ended up having anomalous data set for your neutron observations: FO,SIGFO,DANO,SIGDANO,ISYM ?

By default phenix.refine will always take anomalous data set if there is a choice anomalous versus non-anomalous. This is because anomalous data is a) richer source of information, and b) less manipulated compared to non-anomalous Fmean=(F+ + F-)/2 or Imean=(I+ + I-)/2.

In refinement Bijvoet mates F+ and F- are counted as two reflections, not one. So don't get surprised to see "doubled" number of reflections. It's not really doubled, it's what you actually have.

All in all, if you don't have anomalous data make sure your inputs files do not have spurious (anomalous) arrays: phenix.refine can't read your mind to see what you have done in your diffraction experiment - it's beyond the scope of what it's supposed to do!

All the best,
Pavel

Hi,

I'm doing a joint X-ray neutron refinement in Phenix and have run into some behaviour that puzzles me. I had not been paying any attention to the use or non-use of anomalous signal in the neutron dataset, as 

This is what I get if I let phenix.refine itself decide whether or not to use anomalous data:

================================= Neutron data ================================

Completeness with d_max=infinity: 0.78486

Number of F-obs in resolution range:                   16672
Number of F-obs<0 (these reflections will be rejected): 0
Number of F-obs=0 (these reflections will be used in refinement): 0
Refinement resolution range: d_max =  29.2200
                             d_min =   1.8983

and this is what I get if I forcibly switch off use of anomalous data in the phenix.refine GUI:

Completeness in resolution range: 0.855801
Completeness with d_max=infinity: 0.855503

What's going on here? If I let phenix.refine decide automatically, it looks like it's reading in F+ and F- separately and regarding them as independent in the refinement. If I force "no anomalous" it merges them. However I can't work out whether in either case it has actually read FOBS instead of the Friedel mates. According to the SCALA manual the I+ and I- columns will always be written out even if the keyword ANOMALOUS OFF is used, so this is a potential pitfall for many. In addition, phenix.refine seems to identify the neutron data first as xray.reconstructed_amplitude then as xray.amplitude even though the data are explicitly defined as neutron data in the GUI.

I can send more information if required!

Thanks
Derek
