Calculations of diffraction line profiles and Scherrer constants for crystallites whose external shape has cubic symmetry are extended to crystallites of cylindrical shape. The analysis includes the limiting cases of acicular crystals and disks and, to a reasonable degree of approximation in many cases, to hexagonal prisms. These shapes have applications in size determination for materials which form prismatic crystallites, particularly those which belong to the hexagonal system or have been derived from substances with this symmetry.
