The complete structure factor for an individual reflection h at
wavelength
is:

Note that the normal scattering component of the anomalous scattering
atoms appears in more than one place in this equation; it is included
in 0FT(h), in 0FAk(h),
and in the explicit terms
k.
The reason for this is that we want to reformulate things in terms of the ratio
of
and
to
.
Now we will consider the simplest case, with only one type of anomalous
scattering atom, and express the magnitude of measured intensity
|
(h)|
in terms of its components:
where 
Note the important fact that all of the wavelength-dependence has been
collected into the coefficients
a(
),
b(
), and
c(
).
