 TWINABS-2012/1 (Bruker,2012) was used for absorption correction.
 
For component 1:
 wR2(int) was 0.1261 before and 0.0938 after correction.
 
For component 2:
 wR2(int) was 0.1731 before and 0.0969 after correction.
 The Ratio of minimum to maximum transmission is 0.68.

Final HKLF 4 output contains 140060 reflections, Rint = 0.1266
 (67988 with I > 3sig(I), Rint = 0.0903)
