_diffrn_radiation.polarisn_ratio

Name:
_diffrn_radiation.polarisn_ratio

Alias:
_diffrn_radiation_polarisn_ratio

Definition:

   
     Polarisation ratio of the diffraction beam incident on the crystal.
     It is the ratio of the perpendicularly polarised to the parallel
     polarised component of the radiation. The perpendicular component
     forms an angle of _diffrn_radiation.polarisn_norm to the normal to
     the diffraction plane of the sample (i.e. the plane containing the
     incident and reflected beams).
