Multiple small-angle scattering. A probe for large inhomogeneities

In conventiondl small-angle scattering technique, multiple scattering is amsidered to be of nuisence value and me looks for a correction factor to eliminate its effect. But it is possible to expand the scape of small-angle scattering beyad its ccnventiondl limit if multiple scattering is suitably exploited. This paper intends to illustrate this point.
