Title	Ab initio crystal structure determination using an image reconstruction technique
Contributors	M W Johnson (Rutherford), W I F David (Rutherford)
Abstract	A new algorithm, MEDIC (Maximum Entropy Direct Inversion of Crystallographic Data), is presented that provides a direct method of inverting the observed integrated intensities in a diffraction experiment to yield the scattering density within a unit cell. The method, based upon the METRIC algorithm ll], uses an image reconstruction technique employing the maximum entropy principle. It has been successfully tested on model systems with both centrosymmetric and non-centrosymmetric structures and on experimental neutron powder diffraction data from two small inorganic structures, cu3(P04)2 and FeAso4 .
