It is the intensity distribution in reciprocal space that corresponds directly to the measured intensity distribution. From Eq. (2), it can be seen that the line broadening due to the domain size is independent of the Bragg peak while the line broadening due to the inhomogeneous strain is proportional to the reciprocal lattice vector of the corresponding diffraction peak.
