Abstract

A technique is described whereby the density of diffraction spots on unidimensional x-ray film is measured by means of a microdensitometer and recorded on a strip chart recorder; simultaneously, the area under the curve is integrated electronically and the results are displayed on a digital counting device. The data for one structure which has been completed gave a final R value of 0.064.
