Triple-crystal X-ray spectroscopy of diffuse scattering from tracks

A theoretical model is presented for studying the structure of tracks of charged particles in crystals. Two structurally different track regions are considered: the track proper and its elastically deformed vicinity. A computer program is written for determining the contributions from a track and its elastically deformed vicinity to the experimental diffuse-scattering data and their quantitatively evaluating dimensions and other parameters. The effect of the model parameters on the shape of diffuse-scattering curves is also considered.
