Hi Phil,

Thanks! That appeared to hit the spot. Got my inverse, transposes in a
muddle. This combined with A=UB gives me the result I'm after.

Cheers,

Graeme

Graeme

Not sure that I understand the context, but the basic diffractometer  
equation is

x = [Phi] [U] [B] h

where h =(h k l), [B] is the orthogonalisation matrix (from cell), [U]  
is the orientation matrix (a rotation matrix) & [Phi] is the spindle  
rotation

In my definition anyway, a reindexing matrix [H]  post-multiplies the  
row vector hT , ie h'T = hT [H] or h' = [H]T h, ie h = [H]T^-1  
h' (where T indicates transpose)


Then we want   [U] [B] h = [U'] [B'] h' = [U] [B] [H]T^-1 h'

ie [U'] [B']  = [U] [B] [H]T^-1

we can disentangle the orthogonal matrices [U] & [U'] from the cell  
matrices [B] & [B'] via the reciprocal metric tensor

[[U'][B']]T []U'][B']] = [B']T [U']T [U'] [B']  = [B']T [B'] since    
[U']T [U']  = I  from which we can reconstruct [B'] & hence get [U']  
which is what you want
