Abstract
The theory of X-ray diffraction from faulted alpha uranium crystals is developed. The intensity distribution in reciprocal space is derived as a function of the probabilities of occurrence of single and double faults. Only reflexions with K ≠ 0and L ≠ 0 are affected. For these, there are changes in peak integrated intensity and peak broadening. The faults do not produce any peak displacement or peak asymmetry. Methods of evaluating the fault probabilities from measured profile characteristics are discussed.
