    "abstract": "We study Bragg scattering at 1D optical lattices. Cold atoms are confined by\nthe optical dipole force at the antinodes of a standing wave generated inside a\nlaser-driven high-finesse cavity. The atoms arrange themselves into a chain of\npancake-shaped layers located at the antinodes of the standing wave. Laser\nlight incident on this chain is partially Bragg-reflected. We observe an\nangular dependence of this Bragg reflection which is different to what is known\nfrom crystalline solids. In solids the scattering layers can be taken to be\ninfinitely spread (3D limit). This is not generally true for an optical lattice\nconsistent of a 1D linear chain of point-like scattering sites. By an explicit\nstructure factor calculation we derive a generalized Bragg condition, which is\nvalid in the intermediate regime. This enables us to determine the aspect ratio\nof the atomic lattice from the angular dependance of the Bragg scattered light.",
