Description
The overall standard uncertainty (e.s.d.) of the positional
parameters based on a maximum likelihood residual.
The overall standard uncertainty (sigma~X~)^2 gives an
idea of the uncertainty in the position of averagely
defined atoms (atoms with B values equal to average B value)
3 N_a
(sigma~X~)^2 = -----------------------------------------------------
8 pi^2 sum~i~ {(1/Sigma - (E_o)^2 (1-m^2)(SUM_AS)s^2}
SUM_AS = (sigma_A)^2/Sigma^2)
N_a = number of atoms
Sigma = (sigma_{E;exp})^2 + epsilon (1-{sigma_A)^2)
E_o = normalized structure factors
sigma_{E;exp} = experimental uncertainties of normalized
structure factors
sigma_A = SQRT(Sigma_P/Sigma_N)
estimated using maximum likelihood
Sigma_P = sum_{atoms in model} f^2
Sigma_N = sum_{atoms in crystal} f^2
f = is form factor of atoms
delta_x = expected error
m = is figure of merit of phases of reflection
included in summation delta_x expected error
s = reciprocal space vector
epsilon = multiplicity of diffracting plane
summation is over all reflections included in refinement
