## Abstract Ring‐opening metathesis polymerization was used to generate an ABC triblock copolymer, containing complementary diamidopyridine (DAP) and thymine (THY) outer blocks, which assembles into spherical aggregates held together by DAP–THY noncovalent interactions. Addition of THY‐containing s

✦ Synopsis
Small-angle neutron and X-ray scattering are techniques, which are frequently used for studying the structure and interactions of block copolymer micelles. Recent developments of models for the analysis of small-angle scattering data are reviewed. The most recent models, based on Monte Carlo simulations, are able to provide information on shape, aggregation number, polydispersity, core size, core solvation, corona shapersize, and on the interactions between the chains in the corona.
