Abstract

The theory of the thermal diffuse scattering correction, which is quite different for X-rays and for neutrons, is described. The contribution of Compton scattering to Bragg intensities is explained and tables are presented for the incoherent scattering function for elements up to atomic number 55 and [\sin\theta/\lambda] values up to 2.0 Å−1. Different models for calculating the incoherent scattering are discussed. Background components of X-ray scattering from a crystalline sample and from different inelastic components of the scattered radiation are described.
