Abstract:
A three parameter description of fractal aggregates is derived from the pair correlation function of the monomeric units that compose the aggregate. The parameters describe the mass fractal scaling with linear size (the fractal dimension), the packing fraction density of the spherical monomers, and the overall shape of the aggregates. Values for these three parameters are determined for diffusion limited cluster aggregates (DLCAs) in three dimensions. The effects of these parameters are found in terms of measureable quantities in both real and reciprocal space.

Diffraction
Diffraction is the change in the direction of travel experienced by an electromagnetic wave when it encounters a physical barrier whose dimensions are comparable to those of the wavelength of the light. X-rays are electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths about as long as the distance between neighboring...
