It has been noted that the family of plane electromagnetic waves and the "electromagnetic universe" of Bertotti-Robinson exhaust the entire class of conformally flat Einsteirr-Maxwell spaces. In the formalism of Newman-Penrose a family of exact solutions of the Einstein-Maxwell equations of the type of Bertotti-Robinson is obtained with a cosmological term belonging to the degenerate type D in the algebraic classification of Petrov and describing the space-time generated by a covariantly constant, nonisotropic electromagnetic field.

Many crystals produce a diffuse scattering of X-rays which is localized in a series of relplanes. It is shown that the corresponding linear disorder in the crystal may have various origins. In silicon, the scattering is due to thermal vibrations and is well explained by the elastic properties of the crystal. In neutron irradiated quartz the radiation damage is responsible for the major part of the scattering. The case of BaTiO3 and KNbO3 is discussed in detail. A linear disorder is proposed which accounts better for the different distributions of the scattering in the 4 allotropic phases than the alternative explanation of the soft mode. In spite of some neutron inelastic scattering results it is not yet possible to distinguish between static and dynamic disorder.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
