The analysis of misorientations has up to now usually be carried out by comparing thevalues obtained experimentally using two dimensional distributions of rotation axes orrotation angles with the distribution calculated by Mackenzie for the statistically randomcase. In this paper the presentation of the distribution of the misorientations is basedon the three dimensional orientation distribution function (ODF) (as described by Bunge).The new function is termed the misorientation distribution function (MDF) to differentiateit from the ODF. The advantages in using this function are presented and illustratedby three MDF's derived from the work of Haessner, Pospiech and Sztwiertnia.
