Abstract
A reinterpretation of the observations by Morniroli et al. (1983) on metal carbides is presented. The metal carbides are formally treated as binary systems and the 'cluster theory' of the origin of the diffuse scattering is applied. It was shown that the atom clusters for which the cluster theory was originally developed can be extrapolated to clusters of configurations of atoms, under certain conditions. The proposed interpretation leads directly to a restrictad number of defect planes, present in the microdomain model used by Morniroli et al. (1983).
