Abstract

Of the processes that reduce the intensity of X-rays passing through matter, photoelectric absorption, scattering and extinction are important for the X-ray wavelengths used in crystallography. This chapter discusses each in turn. Different kinds of absorption corrections are described and parameters for use in calculating absorption corrections are tabulated.
