Can any one add which Patterson is responsible for this function...? -- User:Stillnotelf from 152.2.49.238 15:21, 9 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

electron density convolved with its inverse??

Isn't it rather electron density convolved with the electron density at a point displaced by the vector u?

The formula presented is

P({\vec {u}})=\rho ({\vec {r}})*\rho (-{\vec {r}})

but how can we have ${\vec {r}}$ on the right hand and ${\vec {u}}$ on the left hand side? Shouldn't it rather be:

P({\vec {u}})=\rho ({\vec {r}})*\rho ({\vec {r}}+{\vec {u}})

?

@Beryllium-9: It seems no competent person is watching this article, since the blooper remains to this day. Michael Hardy (talk) 17:50, 31 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

If you are certain it is really a blooper, you are of course free to edit the article :) Beryllium-9 (talk) 12:19, 8 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
