Abstract

The general form of the X-ray susceptibility tensor near absorption edges is found when several anisotropic factors, such as the anisotropy of local atomic environment, magnetic ordering and orbital ordering, simultaneously exist in a crystal. Different phenomenological approaches are used to obtain the explicit form of the susceptibility tensor and to find the contributions from each anisotropic factor separately as well as 'combined' terms owing to their simultaneous existence. The results of the theoretical treatment are applied to the resonant diffraction by La0.5Sr1.5MnO4 below the Neel temperature, where charge and orbital ordering coexist with anisotropy of local atomic environment and magnetic ordering.
