scattering of X-rays (in this case) from a crystal. It depends on the "long- range" order in the crystal. More disorder means poorer diffraction especially at higher resolution.

Diffraction, the deviation of light from rectilinear propagation, is a characteristic of wave phenomena which occurs when a portion of a wave front is obstructed in some way. When various portions of a wave front propagate past some obstacle, and interfere at a later point past the obstacle, the pattern formed is called a diffraction pattern.

An effect on wavefronts passing though an aperture. Wavefronts passing by the edges of the telescope pupil are bent and result in fringe patterns in the resulting image.
