Brief description of the work:

A flexible pair distribution function has been developed for
disordered systems or anharmonic vibrational systems.
The parameters in the function are related to local thermal expansion,
a characteristic temperature.
The hybrid method of Fourier transformation and regularization method
has been studied to improve r-space resolution.
