The following paper is the "official" DISCUS paper. All publications containing results obtained using DISCUS should contain a reference to the following paper. Please send us an email with the reference of your paper containing DISCUS results, so that we can keep this list up to date.

  • PROFFEN, TH. & NEDER, R.B.
    DISCUS, a Program for Diffuse Scattering and Defect Structure Simulations (1997).
