Abstract The theory of X‐ray diffraction from an ordered alloy containing antiphase domains is developed by expressing the Fourier coefficients that represent the diffracted intensity in a powder pattern in terms of a domain size distribution function. The size distribution function is expressed in terms of the second derivative of the Fourier coefficients and, hence, can be determined from experimental measurements of the superlattice peak shape. A comparison of these results to those of previous treatments of this problem shows that valuable additional information about the domain size distribution is accessible by means of the procedures presented here.
