Not sure if this is helpful Phil, but SCALEIT output includes various 
definitions taken from the Willis and Prior book.

But then there is the problem of converting the amplitude B factors to 
real space..
I attach my anisotropy notes..

It doesnt address the ? of sensible conventions!!

C The order is: Uo11 Uo22 Uo33 Uo12 Uo13 Uo23 C C Shelx defines Ufn_ij to calculate temperature factor as: C T(aniso_Ufn) = exp (-2PI**2 ( (h*ast)**2 Ufn_11 + (k*bst)**2 Ufn_22 + (l*cst)**2 Ufn_33 C + 2hk*ast*bst*Ufn_12 + 2hl*ast*bst*Ufn_13+ 2kl*bst*cst*Ufn_23) C C Note: Uo_ji == Uo_ij and Uf_ji == Uf_ij. C C 10**4*[Uo_ij] listed on ANISOU card satisfy the relationship: C [Uo_ij] = [RFu]-1 [Ufn_ij] {[RFu]-1}T C [Ufn_ij] = [RFu] [Uo_ij] {[RFu]}T C where [Rfu] is the normalised [Rf] matrix read derived from the SCALEi cards.    ie Rf11 Rf12 Rf13 = SCALE1(1) SCALE1(2) SCALE1(3)       Rf21 Rf22 Rf23 SCALE2(1) SCALE2(2) SCALE2(3)       Rf31 Rf32 Rf33 SCALE3(1) SCALE3(2) SCALE3(3) and Rfu11 Rf12 Rfu13 = Rf11/FAC1 Rf12/FAC1 Rf13/FAC1       where FAC1 = SQRT(Rf11**2 +Rf12**2 +Rf13**2) etc. For conventional SCALEi FAC1 = a*, etc but I am not sure if it is always true.. If it is and you convert [Uf_ij] = [RF] [Uo_ij] {[RF]}T where [Rf] is the SCALEi matrix without normalisation then  T(aniso_Uf) = exp (-2PI**2 ( (h)**2 Uf_11 + (k)**2 Uf_22 +(l)**2 Uf_33 +                          2hk*Uf_12 +..) C C Biso = 8*PI**2 (Uo_11 + Uo_22 + Uo_33) / 3.0 C C [Uf(symm_j)] = [Symm_j] [Uf] [Symm_j]T C Do you want structure factor equations in reciprocl space with anisotropic B (or U values) values? Then no questions marks there. For scaling You are right. You just calculate structure factors as you would do normally with formfactors also of course and then apply contribution of anistropic scale factor. I.e. F_scaled = k exp(-SBS) F_unscaled F_uscale = sum_overatoms f_iatom exp(-2pi i (h xf + k yf + l zf) Garib  ======================================================================= Structure factor for atoms with anisotropic U values F(hkl) = sum_overatom f_atom(hkl) T(U_atom,hkl) exp(-2pi i (h xf + k yf + z yf) T(U_atom,hkl) = exp(-(U11 h2 + U22 k2 + U33 l2 + 2 U12 hk + 2 U13 hl + 2 U23 kl)) = exp(-(hkl) U hkl^T) hkl is a row vector. If you write it as a column vector then transpose should be on the right side. There might be constant or so somewhere there.

It would also be nice to have the coefficients used in the more traditional U_aniso form where u_ij = betaij/8PI**2 for comparison to other software.
