Any pointers to good sources for non- spherical electron density distributions? Even a first order correction with S + P orbitals?

Not to be greedy, but any sources for MO for isolated amino acids or short peptides?

"We used spectrophotometry, electron microscopy, and optical modelling to explain the mechanisms producing bright white tail feather tips of the Eurasian woodcock Scolopax rusticola. Their diffuse reflectance was approximately 30% higher than any previously measured feather. This intense reflectance is the result of incoherent light scattering from a disordered nanostructure composed of keratin and air within the barb rami"

Testing the new volume scattering addition to MagicaCSG's renderer. Looking good. 👍

Today, nearly 22 months after her death, various family members were able to get together and scatter my mother's ashes along a bushwalk that she loved dearly.

Where are we going?
So much to think about when confronted with death. And after the service all the people scatter. What do we do after the service? Where are we going?

If we have elected for a burial, this is quite easy as our loved one is gently lowered into the muddy well dug tomb. We often bury people to a considerable depth, around 6 feet, but there are options fo

Hello, (new Mastodon) World! Welcome to the account from P12's #SAXS Team. We look forward to updating you on the activities here at #EMBL #Hamburg as well as exciting new stuff from the world of #scattering!

I plan a series of posts on a couple of #scattering based methods I wish to use next. It may take some time to be somewhat accurate and somewhat understandable....
