In comparison to perturbation theory, substantial quantitative discrepancies are found that affect determination of interbilayer interactions. A harmonic theory is also routinely used to interpret x-ray scattering line shapes; this is shown to be valid because the distance dependence of the simulated correlation functions can be fairly well fit by the harmonic theory.4 pages, 6 figuresBiological PhysicsComputational Physicstext
