[http://dx.doi.org/10.1107/S0108767387099951 Yates & Rees, Acta Cryst. (1987). A43, 30-36] give a method for solving a twinned structure using MIR. This requires four independent derivatives.

Refinement of merohedrally and pseudo-merohedrally twinned data data is possible using [[CNS]] (for input files, see CNS homepage - main menu - input files - x ray - twinning), [[ccp4dev:Refinement_with_Refmac5|Refmac]] or [[Phenix|phenix.refine]] ([http://www.phenix-online.org/documentation/refinement.htm#anch38 Refinement using twinned data]) and has "always" been possible with [[SHELXL]] ([http://shelx.uni-ac.gwdg.de/~rherbst/twin.html Twin-Refinement with SHELXL]).

# K = mean(Fo^2)/mean(Fc^2) is systematically high for reflections with low intensity. This may also indicate a wrong choice of space group in the absence of twinning.
