On the Cover

Corrected intensity data for a thermal neutron beam scattering off a potassium dihydrogen phosphate crystal. Spherical neutron waves, generated by scattering from hydrogen in the sample, should give rise to sharp conical intensity peaks, ('K ' lines, previously seen in x-ray and in electron-scattering experiments), upon further interaction with the crystal lattice. The predicted K lines are shown in white; the observed intensity peaks are in red.
