Notes:
Small-angle equatorial x-ray scattering from fibrous systems is often complicated by the effects of morphological organization and/or heterogeneities as well as by macromolecular structure and organization influencing this same region of scattering space. In previous work it was shown that closed form mathematical expressions could be obtained for the Patterson function, without prior assumptions about the scattering system, when the intensity data were purposely truncated. In this paper the use of these expressions to extract the physical parameters describing the scattering system is demonstrated by application to a model system. The expressions are also expanded to include lattice distortions and long range coherency. A second approach is presented for cases when the coherence is small, and finally the use of higher-resolution data is discussed.
