Based on the X-ray diffraction theory, the X-ray diffraction patterns of C60 crystals with various stacking patterns have been simulated. The origin of amorphous scattering in C60 crystals has been discussed. It is suggested that there are two kinds of movements for a C60 molecule. The amorphous scattering of the crystals displays an intrinsic strutural characteristic of C60 crystals.
