A comparison of various commonly used correlation functions for describing total scattering
Abstract
Total scattering, an increasingly important crystallographic research area, is defined theoretically in terms of correlation functions. Different researchers use different definitions for these functions, frequently leading to confusion in the literature. Here, a consistent set of equations for total-scattering correlation functions are developed and explicitly compared with other, often encountered, definitions. It is hoped that this will lead to increased transparency for newcomers to the field of total scattering.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
