Abstract
A derivation is given of the probability distribution of the phase of a triple product ϕ = ϕh1 + ϕ = ϕh2 + ϕ = ϕh3 with h1 + h2 + h3 = 0, employing a priori structural information. This derivation is valid if normalized group scattering factors are small and certain conditions for h1, h2, h3 are fulfilled. To derive this distribution it is necessary to regard the atomic position vectors as primitive random variables, not all independent in view of the structural information. It is also shown that if no structural information is available the expression for the probability distribution of the phase of a triple product, where the atomic position vectors are regarded as the primitive random variables, is identical to the one where h1, h2, h3 are regarded as the primitive random variables. In the first case certain conditions for h1, h2, h3 must be fulfilled; in the second the atomic position vectors are subject to certain conditions.
