Abstract
The static structure factor and the undulation dynamics of a solid-supported membrane stack have previously been calculated by Romanov and Ul'yanov [Romanov & Ul'yanov (2002). Phys. Rev. E, 66, 061701]. Based on this prior work, the calculation has been extended to cover the membrane dynamics, i.e. the intermediate scattering function as a Fourier transform of the van Hove correlation function of the membrane stack. Fortran code which calculates the intermediate scattering function for a membrane stack on a solid support is presented. It allows the static and dynamic scattering functions to be calculated according to the derivation of Romanov and Ul'yanov. The physical properties of supported phospholipid bilayers can be examined in this way and the results can be directly compared with results obtained from grazing-incidence neutron spin-echo spectroscopy experiments.
