We will show that the data reported call for a more detailed development of the elasticity theory of Jaric and Nelsson in order to determine the nature of small phonon-like atomic displacements with a symmetry that follows the phason elastic constants.18 pages, 0 figures, many additions, discussion addedMaterials ScienceOn the problem of the correct interpretation of phason elasticity in quasicrystalstext
