Abstract

A FORTRAN 77 program to perform full matrix least-squares refinement of unit cell parameters from powder diffraction patterns showing incommensurate supercell reflections is described. The code is completely general, being applicable to any crystal system, and can refine all three unit cell edges and angles and, in the presence of an incommensurate supercell, can refine the components of the modulation vector along all three reciprocal axes. Estimated standard deviations on all the refined parameters are calculated analytically.
