First of all, thank you for the great software!
I am trying to calculate the single crystal diffraction pattern using the powder diffraction pattern tool.
Basically, I am trying to delete some of the reflection peaks and take into account only the reflection planes allowed by symmetry/geometry. In particular I would like to take only the contributions of planes (00l).
Is there a way to do in VESTA?
If not, a simple idea is to reconstruct the single crystal diffraction pattern from the diffraction table. so the intensity of the peak is given by |F|^2.
The whole diffraction pattern should be
where I use the lorentzian to describe the spectral line. However, I get wrong results. If I try to reconstruct in this way the whole powder spectrum (with all reflection planes) using
I get a diffraction pattern which does not match the pattern calculated by VESTA. Probably these equations are wrong...I am sorry because diffraction spectroscopy is not my expertise. Could you maybe help me to understand which equation should I use?
Thank you in advance.
