Abstract

The novel method for structural analysis of quasicrystals with phason flips is presented. The correction for diffraction peaks’ intensities can be made within average unit cell approach by modification of the statistical distribution of atomic positions. Characteristic function of the distribution expanded into moment series, involving only even moments, estimates the envelope function and therefore the flip ratio can be evaluated.
