THE INFLUENCE OF THE AVAILABLE SCATTERING-VECTOR RANGE ON THE RETRIEVAL OF PARTICLE-SIZE DISTRIBUTIONS FROM SMALL-ANGLE SCATTERING INTENSITY DATA

The determination of the particle-size distribution [D(r)] from small- angle scattering intensity data is discussed. The influence of the max imum available scattering vector h(max) on D(r) retrieval is investiga ted with the help of numerical experiments with. previously known solu tions. The numerical corrector method provides a good answer even in c ases where h(max) is much smaller than those values necessary with oth er retrieval methods.
