GISAS without DWBA terms

This example shows scattering from a monolayer that contains a dilute random assembly of monodisperse cylindrical disks.

This is the same system as in our basic GISAS example except that there is no substrate. In consequence, there are no reflections, and therefore the DWBA boils down to the ordinary Born approximation.
