Abstract
IN a recent issue of NATURE1 W. A. Wood has published two interesting back-reflexion photographs from cold-worked steel, taken in the course of experiments to determine the nature of the deformation that causes the broadening of the X-ray lines. Such broadening may be caused both by the breakdown of the metallic grains into smaller crystallites and by variation of the lattice parameter from point to point in each crystal grain.
