The effect of disorientation on the intensity distribution of non-crystalline fibres. II. Applications

Starting with the integral form of the correction factor derived in the previous paper [Holmes & Barrington-Leigh (1974). Acta Cryst. A30, 635-638], the explicit form of the function describing intensity in reciprocal space for slightly disoriented non-crystalline fibres is described, and simplifying approximations are made. Correction factors for real data are calculated, and the validity of the theory tested with data from tobacco mosaic virus gels. A correction factor is also given for crystalline fibres
