Hi Dan, Take a look at the fit in q-space with the model below. I suspect that you have left out important Multiple scattering paths that would cause a miss-fit to the data at low k values. To test for this, change the fit range to something like 4.0 1/Anstroms for k-min value, and try again. Shelly

Hi Shelly,
I seperated the delr's with different alpha terms, but Mike seems to think that this is assuming isotropic expansion that isn't there. Also, the reduced chi-square has gone up 150 or so.
delr# define: alpha# * reff
Thanks for the help, Dan
