with c the volume fraction of polymers in solution and the contrast factor K . This again is a<br />

demonstration of the possibilities of contrast variation with neutrons allowing to measure the<br />

form factor P(Q) of a polymer chain in solution .<br />

Presentation ofa Diblock Copolymer<br />

We now derive the scattering law of a linear polymer, consisting of the two<br />

blocks A" and<br />

B" of different polymers and which are<br />

symmetric with respect to the<br />

number of the<br />

monomers z = 2z D = 2z H .<br />

The scattering cross section is given as<br />
