Hi, Georg!

For example you can use the data which you have already calculated
with lapw3. If you want to transform them into the structure factors
for the complete b-centered cell you should simply multiply the
obtained values by 2 for the case h+l=2n and by 0 when h+l=2n+1.

With the best regards
Semen
