“…In several papers on anharmonic motions of atoms, a temperature factor is used that is derived from an effective one-particle potential, abbreviated as OPP (Dawson, Hurley & Maslen, 1967), or, what is in essence the same, from an isolated-atom potential, abbreviated as IAP (Willis, 1969). For applications see Mair, Barnea, Cooper & Rouse (1974), Willis & Pryor (1975), Mair & Barnea (1975), Matsubara (1975a, b), Harada, Suzuki & Hoshino (1976), Merisalo & Larsen (1977, Whiteley, Moss & Barnea (1978), Moss, McMullan & Koetzle (1980), Field (1982), Kontio & Stevens (1982), Zucker & Schulz (1982) and other authors. Usually, in the probability density function -abbreviated p.d.f.…”
