Discrepancies in kinematic calculations of HOLZ lines.
We have found significant differences between the results of computer simulations of HOLZ line patterns. The computations in question are made in the kinematical approximation. After trivial errors are eliminated the programs fall into two groups. There is a discrepancy between the two that increases with distance from the zone axis. The difference is small but not negligible at the level of precision used in determining lattice parameters or strain. We show which of the two is correct in the kinematic approximation and that the discrepancy between the two groups is of the order of the error introduced by dynamical interaction.
