X-ray scattering is used to demonstrate the existence in quartz of an incommensurate phase with a single modulation when a uniaxial stress is applied in the X Y plane. Good agreement with earlier neutron scattering experiments is found.

A comparison between the resonant scattering curve obtained by anomalous small-angle X-ray scattering at the X-ray absorption edge of Ni and the complementary small-angle neutron scattering curve from an Al89Ni6La5alloy sample is reported. The sample does not comply with the two-phase approximation. The two resulting scattering curves are approximately proportional to each other in this particular case. The anomalous small-angle X-ray scattering resonant curve at the Ni absorption edge equals the Ni–Ni partial structure factor and, owing to the favourable neutron scattering lengths of Ni, La and Al, the neutron scattering curve is also proportional to that partial structure factor.
