title: Note on the theory of x-ray diffraction by spherical shell structures.
abstract: An equation is derived, which connects two functions P(r) and g(x), the first being related to the scattering intensity by a simple transformation, the second to the elctron density distribution of a spherically symmetric structure. This relation seems to be a suitable starting point for an analysis of shell structures from diffraction patterns.
