along the (010)-direction at 20 K . The points<br />

(phonons) in<br />

a) result from the maxima observed in many separate<br />

scans . E.g. the results within the marked region are obtained from scans as shown in b). Such scans display however<br />

not always all theoretically expected phonons simultaneously . The solid line in a) represents the fit of the<br />

experimentally obtained data to a lattice dynamical model ; in b) the line corresponds to the fit of the response<br />

fantion broadened by the resolution function of the instrument to the observed scattering intensity (inmany cases,<br />

a one dimensional folding with a Gaussian is sufficient for fitting the measured spectra) . [7] .<br />
