Access to and Documentation of Publicly Financed Survey Data
The topic of this paper is access to and documentation of survey data financed through public funds. We distinguish between four types of publicly financed survey data: (1) Academic survey data from the national or international research infrastructures; (2) data from DFG projects or similarly funded projects; (3) survey data collected in research projects funded by the Federal State and the Länder (Ressortforschung); (4) Population and Household surveys from national and international statistical agencies. For each of these types of data we describe the current situation and present recommendations for future developments.Survey data, data access, data documentation, data archive
Diffuse LEED intensities of disordered crystal surfaces : II. Multiple scattering on disordered overlayers
The diffraction of low energy electrons from disordered overlayers adsorbed on ordered substrates is treated theoretically by an extension of Beeby's multiple scattering method. A lattice gas model is assumed for the disordered adsorbate layer. Multiple scattering within a certain area around each atom — each atom of the overlayer and within the ordered substrate — is treated self-consistently, the remaining contributions to the total scattering amplitude being averaged. The theory can be used in the limiting cases of random distribution and of long range order within the adsorbate layer

Diffuse LEED intensities of disordered crystal surfaces : IV. Application of the disorder theory
The principles of the statistical disorder theory are discussed briefly. The theory is applied to a model of the disordered (101)Au surface with the characteristic (1 × 2) supersstructure. A fit procedure is described, by which the experimental angular intensity profiles are used directly to determine the disorder parameters and the interaction energies between the chains of surface atoms
Diffuse LEED intensities of disordered crystal surfaces : I. Correlations between statistics and multiple diffraction
It is shown that the diffraction of slow electrons from disordered crystal surfaces is correlated with the problem of thermodynamical statistics. The correlation functions are completely determined by the self-energies and interaction energies of neighboring complexes. These quantities solve the problem of a-priori probabilities and the cooperative phenomenon of correlation functions of these complexes. If the calculation of a certain set of multiple scattering amplitudes is possible, the remaining problem of determining the diffuse LEED pattern becomes solvable. The calculation of angular beam profiles follows the same lines as already described for the kinematic theory of X-ray diffraction
