| Abstract: | As shown in part I of this paper, from a Kossel-line profile the tails are best suited for crystal structure analysis. In this part a general theoretical expression has been derived for the tails of line profile in case of different examples often observed. The theoretical results have been compared with experimental ones. As a consequence two possibilities of application in crystal structure analysis can be recommended: at first the proof of proposals of structure by the use of tails of the profiles including phase information, and secondly the direct evaluation of structure amplitudes in favourable cases. – The dark and bright fields in Kossel patterns can be explained by taking into consideration the long ranging tails of profiles. The physical similarities and differences between Kossel interferences, divergent beam interferences, Kikuchi lines and channelling patterns are considered. |
