Cover illustration: Power spectrum of a high-resolution electron-microscopy image of NiAl <110>. The image calculation includes a realistic phonon spectrum by coupling the `molecular dynamics' and `multislice' simulation techniques. The diffuse background, satellite peaks and bands mirror the effect of thermal diffuse scattering and correlated atom vibrations. Courtesy of G. Möbus, T. Gemming and P. Gumbsch. |

Synopsis: Energy-filtered convergent-beam electron diffraction is applied to measure the temperature factors of the intermetallic phase NiAl with high accuracy. A detailed error analysis is given, stochastic and systematic errors are discussed and quantified.

Synopsis: The internal and external X-ray standing waves (SW) formed by dynamical diffraction are theoretically discused in the case of weakly distorted crystals. Care is required in the application of SW methods because the location of SW is very sensitive to lattice distortions compared with rocking curves.

Synopsis: In step-scan diffraction measurements, the diffraction angle 2![[theta]](/logos/entities/thetas_rmgif.gif)
is an observation with standard uncertainty
u(2). Theoretical and experimental investigation of the influence of u(2) on the uncertainty of the intensity data shows that u(2) usually contributes a multiple of Poisson statistics to the standard uncertainty of the intensity.

Synopsis: General expressions are derived that describe the positions of reflections (the cylindrically projected reciprocal lattice) on a diffraction pattern from an oriented polycrystalline fiber for a triclinic unit cell with any orientation to the fiber axis. Calculations illustrate the characteristics of the projected reciprocal lattice.

Synopsis: Spatial auto- and cross-correlation functions of quantities distributed radially over spheres of different radii are presented in analytical form. In terms of its application to small-angle (neutron and X-ray) scattering, the distance distribution function is calculated for two-shell ionic micelles and for a spherical Gaussian contrast distribution.

Synopsis: The re-interpretation by Hu (1997) of the 1975 data of Mathieson is shown to be fallacious by reference to the subsequent experimental measurements by Mathieson in 1977.

Synopsis: There is an obvious difference between the behaviour of the dependence of the integrated reflection power ratio on the asymmetric parameter for plane crystals predicted by the H-D equations on mosaic crystals and that predicted by the theory of Hirsch & Ramachandran on perfect crystals. To get rid of the surface layer effect of the crystal sample is most important for the verification of such a difference by experiment.
