The overall standard uncertainty (estimated standard deviation)
of the displacement parameters based on the crystallographic
R value, expressed in a formalism known as the dispersion
precision indicator (DPI).
The overall standard uncertainty (sigmaB) gives an idea
of the uncertainty in the B values of averagely defined
atoms (atoms with B values equal to the average B value).
N_a
(sigma_B)2 = 0.65 --------- (R_value)2 (D_min)2 C(-2/3)
(N_o-N_p)
N_a = number of atoms
N_o = number of reflections included in refinement
N_p = number of refined parameters
R_value = conventional crystallographic R value
D_min = maximum resolution
C = completeness of data
