refinement by the least-squares and Fourier methods. For centrosymmetric structures the
same corrections, when less than about 0.10 A., are given by both methods. A modified form
of the Fourier method is suggested to allow for phase-angle refinement in non-
centrosymmetric structures, which is equivalent to the least-squares method when the
corrections are small.
