Mean Square Vibration Amplitudes in Zinc

Abstract

The structure factors of 98 independent reflections have been determined by measurement of the integrated intensities for X-ray diffraction from a zinc single crystal at 295 K. The mean square vibration amplitudes found for the two principal directions are' compared with 'other recent measurements. The X-ray Debye temperature determined from the data' is 207 ± 3 K at 295 K.
