Determination of imaginary components of anomalous scattering of some elements from experimental data

TLDR: In this article, the anomalous dispersion components of the stronger anomalous scatterers were calculated for four compounds, viz., zinc sulphide, L-α-glyceryl phosphoryl ethanolamine monohydrate, 1-β-arabinofurinosyl cytosine hydrochloride and lithium aluminium oxide.

Abstract: Using the Bijvoet difference data reported in the literature for four compounds,viz./it, zinc sulphide, L-α-glyceryl phosphoryl ethanolamine monohydrate, 1-β-arabinofurinosyl cytosine hydrochloride and lithium aluminium oxide, the anomalous dispersion components Δf″ of the stronger anomalous scatterer in each case is calculated accepting the theoretical values for the lighter anomalous scatterers. For MoKα radiation the values turn out to be Δf″zn=1.470 (85), and for CuKα Δf″P=0.430 (25) Δf″C1=0.715 (18) and Δf″A1=0.264 (21).
