Abstract By considering three successive approximations to the conduction-electron wavefunction of metallic lithium, it is shown that the X-ray scattering factor at small wavevectors is very sensitive to the model chosen for describing the electron density. It is demonstrated that, when screened pseudopotentials are used, the "solid state effect" is almost negligible in this region of wave-vectors.

In the present study, we calculated the imaginary part of the x-ray scattering factor of nickel based on the principles of quantum mechanics to find a wave function that describes the electronic state of atoms by approximate methods, observed the study suggested that in both low energy values , and at high energy values , the imaginary part is approximately zero, this means that the electrons are intensely connected to the atom, where in the spectrum the photon energies are approximately equal to the electron bonding energy  we note the study pointed out that the imaginary part of the atomic scattering factor become  prominent and the electron becomes highly absorbent, the relative accuracy varies within range (0.03-0.22)%, and there was also a good agreement between the behavior we obtained for the imaginary part of the atomic scattering factor and the behavior that was calculated using other models.    http://dx.doi.org/10.25130/tjps.23.2018.171


The atomic scattering factor ( f -factor) for X-rays is the ratio of the amplitude of the X-rays scattered by a given atom and that scattered according to the classical theory by one single free electron. It is given as a function of sin ϑ/λ, λ being the wave-length of the X-rays, 2ϑ the angle between the primary and the scattered radiation. It is assumed to be independent of the wave-length so long as sin ϑ/λ remains constant. Recently, however, it has been shown both theoretically and experimentally that the last assumption is no longer valid, when the scattered frequency is in the neighbourhood of one of the characteristic frequencies of the scattering element. The first to show the influence of the anomalous dispersion on the f factor were Mark and Szilard, who reflected strontium and bromine radiations by a rubidium bromide crystal. Theoretically the problem was dealt with by Coster, Knol and Prins in their investigation of the influence of the polarity of zincblende on the intensity of X-ray reflection and later on once more by Gloeker and Schäfer.

X-ray diffuse scattering of SrTiO3has been measured at two photon energies, the first just below the absorption edge and the second far from theKabsorption edge of strontium, in order to vary the atomic scattering factor of the strontium cations. It is shown that two different models of cation displacement comply with the single-energy diffuse scattering patterns, because single-energy diffuse scattering provides only ambiguous information on the directions of displacement of the Sr2+and Ti4+cations. However, the application of multi-energy anomalous diffuse scattering determines unambiguously that the Sr2+cations are moved from their ideal positions in the [100] direction and the Ti4+cations are shifted in {111} directions.

An improved cube method was developed for the computation of X-ray scattering curves of macromolecules in solution. For double-helical DNA and RNA molecules the efficiency of this method is shown. The results are compared with curves calculated by effective atomic scattering factor methods. In the small-angle and in the wide-angle regions the improved cube method is superior to the effective atomic scattering factor methods. This was proved by the calculation of structure parameters and by a comparison with experimental scattering data. On the basis of the improved cube method, models with a reduced structure resolution are deduced for DNA and RNA molecules. The models consisting of the three scattering centres phosphate, sugar and base per nucleotide are equivalent in scattering to the real structure up to a scattering angle of about 0.15 rad for copper radiation.

It is now well established that from the point of view of the theory of X-ray reflection, the majority of crystals can be divided into those which are relatively perfect and those which are relatively imperfect or mosaic. The intensity of reflection of X-rays by the former has been much less extensively studied than by the latter and hitherto no really satisfactory agreement appears to have been found between the observed intensities of reflection from highly perfect crystals such as diamond and the results predicted by the theoretical treatment of the subject. It will be shown in what follows that this lack of agreement is very largely removed when the atomic scattering factor, f , which plays such an important part in the theory of reflection by mosaic crystals, is taken into account for perfect crystals.
