Dear Elisa, The PDC formula implelemted in SPM was given to Will Penny by Luiz Baccala himself while he was visiting here. If I remember correctly it was an improved formula that he was about to present at a conference at the time which might explain the difference. We'll look into it and try to either find a reference or correct the formula if there is indeed a mistake.
