Re: [sdpd] model based structure refinement



respected Armel Le Bail and other group fellows
 
we make use of direct and patterson methods for structure solution. and most of the structures, uptill now, are solved using SHELXS software. SHELXS and SHELXL are the part of WinGX program Suit software.
 
which program suite software include other direct space method, as Sir Armel Le Bail  have mentioned, the simulated anneling, the genetic algorithm and the charge flipping methods.
 
Also guide me about their instructional manual, input/output file etc.

Thanks for the citation.

Yes, about step 4 above :
>4. solving the structure by direct or patterson methods
there are now more possibilities including many direct space
methods (locating molecules, etc) by simulated annealing,
genetic algorithm (etc) or charge flipping.

No need of that for a spinel model-based Rietveld refinement.
