Modelling pair distribution functions (PDFs) of organic compounds: describing both intra- and intermolecular correlation functions in calculated PDFs
نویسندگان
چکیده
Many research topics in condensed matter research, materials science and the life sciences make use of crystallographic methods to study crystalline and non-crystalline matter with neutrons, X-rays and electrons. Articles published in the Journal of Applied Crystallography focus on these methods and their use in identifying structural and diffusioncontrolled phase transformations, structure-property relationships, structural changes of defects, interfaces and surfaces, etc. Developments of instrumentation and crystallographic apparatus, theory and interpretation, numerical analysis and other related subjects are also covered. The journal is the primary place where crystallographic computer program information is published.

Deriving High-Resolution Protein Backbone Structure Propensities from All Crystal Data Using the Information Maximization Device
The most informative probability distribution functions (PDFs) describing the Ramachandran phi-psi dihedral angle pair, a fundamental descriptor of backbone conformation of protein molecules, are derived from high-resolution X-ray crystal structures using an information-theoretic approach. The Information Maximization Device (IMD) is established, based on fundamental information-theoretic conce...
متن کاملTowards a robust ad hoc data correction approach that yields reliable atomic pair distribution functions from powder diffraction data.
We examine the equations to obtain atomic pair distribution functions (PDFs) from x-ray, neutron and electron powder diffraction data with a view to obtaining reliable and accurate PDFs from the raw data using a largely ad hoc correction process. We find that this should be possible under certain circumstances that hold, to a reasonably good approximation, in many modern experiments. We describ...
متن کاملVelocity Probability Density Functions from Altimetry
Probability density functions (pdfs) are employed to evaluate the distribution of velocities in the global ocean. This study computes pdfs of ocean surface velocity using altimetric data from the TOPEX/Poseidon satellite. Results show that the shape of the observed pdfs changes with the size of the domain over which they are calculated: if data are drawn from a small region of the ocean, the pd...
متن کاملNuclear Modification to Parton Distribution Functions and Parton Saturation
Abstract. We introduce a generalized definition of parton distribution functions (PDFs) for a more consistent all-order treatment of power corrections. We present a new set of modified DGLAP evolution equations for nuclear PDFs, and show that the resummed αsA /Q-type of leading nuclear size enhanced power corrections significantly slow down the growth of gluon density at small-x. We discuss the...
متن کاملIndoor Wideband Directional Channel Measurements and Modelling
This paper describes wideband directional channel measurements conducted at the 5.2 GHz carrier frequency in two different indoor scenarios. Based on the measurement results, a new statistical wideband indoor channel model which incorporates both the clustering of multipath components (MPCs) and the correlation between the spatial and temporal domains is proposed. MPC parameters are estimated u...
