Abstract

The propagation of the mutual intensity function from an incoherent synchrotron source to the sample is discussed. It is shown how coherency properties of the beam are changed by propagation through random optical elements, such as Be windows and mirrors present in the beamline. The mutual intensity function in this case cannot be described by one coherence length but will rather have several components with different coherence lengths. With computer simulations it is shown how such multicomponent mutual intensity function can affect the reconstruction of nanoparticles in coherent X-ray diffraction experiments.
