Message:

Final rpa model corrections (correct scale and units) and verified with
one of original authors on paper. Fixes #593.

while documentation was updated minimally to be usable it could use more
thorough work as can many which is the subject of other tickets. Also
annoying is that the example plot is useless. It is however
autogenerated from "default parameters" which is not helpful in this
particular case. Will submit new ticket for that.

    25Calculates the macroscopic scattering intensity for a multi-component 
    36homogeneous mixture of polymers using the Random Phase Approximation.

    26 **NB: these case numbers are different from those in the NIST SANS package!**

     30    These case numbers are different from those in the NIST SANS package!

    28 Only one case can be used at any one time. 
     32USAGE NOTES: 
    2933 
    30 The RPA (mean field) formalism only applies only when the multicomponent 
    31 polymer mixture is in the homogeneous mixed-phase region. 
    32  
    33 **Component D is assumed to be the "background" component (ie, all contrasts 
    34 are calculated with respect to component D).** So the scattering contrast 
    35 for a C/D blend = [SLD(component C) - SLD(component D)]\ :sup:`2`. 
    36  
    37 Depending on which case is being used, the number of fitting parameters - the 
    38 segment lengths (ba, bb, etc) and $\chi$ parameters (Kab, Kac, etc) - vary. 
    39 The *scale* parameter should be held equal to unity. 
    40  
    41 The input parameters are the degrees of polymerization, the volume fractions, 
    42 the specific volumes, and the neutron scattering length densities for each 
    43 component. 
     34* Only one case can be used at any one time. 
     35* The RPA (mean field) formalism only applies only when the multicomponent 
     36  polymer mixture is in the homogeneous mixed-phase region. 
     37* **Component D is assumed to be the "background" component (ie, all contrasts 
     38  are calculated with respect to component D).** So the scattering contrast 
     39  for a C/D blend = [SLD(component C) - SLD(component D)]\ :sup:`2`. 
     40* Depending on which case is being used, the number of fitting parameters can  
     41  vary.  Note that in general the degrees of polymerization, the volume 
     42  fractions, the molar volumes, and the neutron scattering lengths for each 
     43  component are obtained from other methods and held fixed while the segment 
     44  lengths (b\ :sub:`a`, b\ :sub:`b`, etc) and $\chi$ parameters (K\ :sub:`ab`, 
     45  K\ :sub:`ac`, etc). The *scale* parameter should be held equal to unity.
