Figure 2
Plan view to show the incident and scattered path lengths, L and $[L^{{\prime}}]$ , of the radiation for in-plane scattering in a cylindrical sample of radius r, where the scattering event takes place at a point with polar coordinates R and [beta]

. k_i and k_f are the magnitudes of the wavevectors for the incident and scattered radiation, respectively, and $[2\theta]$ is the scattering angle.
