WAXS results of samples with 10 mol% cholesterol: (a) Acyl chain correlation distances dWAXS obtained from peak positions in Fig. 4. The red numbers in the legend are the aescin content in mol% and the solid lines are sigmoidal fits. (b) Area per lipid molecule AL calculated from the position of qpeak of the acyl chain correlation peak at 10 °C by Eqn. 2 while assuming hexagonal packing. (c) Tm (WAXS) obtained from the inflection point of the sigmoidal fit in panel (a).
