Question

Why do cylindrical waves create an interference pattern (and sphericals do not)?

Answer 1

It says that elastic scattering creates cylindrical waves, and that creates interference pattern, and the constructive interference will create the bright parts visible on the screen.

It says that inelastic scattering creates spherical waves, and that does not create interference, at least not constructive interference, that would be visible as bright pattern on the screen.
