We present ab initio calculations of the dynamic-scattering cross-section of aluminium, including local-field effects. The fine structure is in excellent agreement with recent inelastic X-ray scattering experiments, and arises from bandstructure effects, in contrast to recent theoretical suggestions. The calculated cross-section exhibits definite anisotropy, especially at higher momentum transfers.
