Calculation of the degree of penetration of the Ewald sphere, q

The subscripts refer to the angles [\varphi_{1}] and [\varphi_{2}], designating the beginning and end of the oscillation range, respectively. See Fig. A11.5.1.3[link] for graphical representations of conditions 1 to 4.

  Almost completely within sphere Almost completely outside sphere Full reflection
Entering Condition 1: Condition 2: [D_{1} \big/\eta_{1} \geq + 1 \hbox{ and } D_{2} \big/ \eta_{2} \leq - 1]
