Abstract

It is shown that the Fraunhofer diffraction pattern of a tilted aperture screen can be interpreted as a “monocular view” of the Ewald sphere. Two of those patterns recorded at opposite tilting angles are used to give a stereoscopic impression of the Ewald sphere. The approximations involved are discussed.
