Polarization anisotropy of X-ray atomic factors and `forbidden' resonant reflections

V. E. Dmitrienko, K. Ishida, A. Kirfel and E. N. Ovchinnikova

Synopsis: In the resonant region near an absorption edge, a polarization anisotropy of the local X-ray susceptibility results in additional reflections otherwise forbidden by screw-axis and/or glide-plane extinction rules.

The algebraic approach to the phase problem

A. Cervellino and S. Ciccariello

Synopsis: The algebraic approach to the phase problem for the case of X-ray scattering from an ideal crystal is extended to the case of neutron scattering, overcoming the difficulty related to the non-positivity of the scattering density.

Extended X-ray interbranch resonance concept for crystals with a one-dimensional deformation

M. Shevchenko

Synopsis: The X-ray interbranch resonance concept is extended to crystals with a one-dimensional deformation. The new interbranch effect is predicted for a strongly distorted crystal with thickness of the order of the interbranch extinction length.

Electron crystallography of zeolites - the MWW family as a test of direct 3D structure determination

D. L. Dorset, W. J. Roth and C. J. Gilmore

Synopsis: The 3D crystal structure of zeolites in the MWW framework family is determined from electron diffraction intensities by direct phasing using maximum entropy and likelihood. Although the `missing cone' left from incomplete goniometric data sampling leads to a somewhat distorted model, the true zeolite framework geometry may be recovered by imposing conservative bonding restraints.

Polarization factors in the general case of three-wave diffraction

S. Sheludko

Synopsis: Analytical expressions are derived for the polarization factors of three-wave reflections which are functions of the geometrical relations between the relevant crystallographic planes and the spectral and polarization characteristics of the incident radiation.
