Abstract
The small angle scattering of radiation or particles from many porous solids may be described in terms of fractal geometry. To date most examples have been surfacefractals but a few studies have suggested that some porous solids may be mass fractals. We give a derivation of the scattering law from such a solid and present an experimental example of such scattering behavior.Keywords
