This paper is part II of a study on cardinals that are characterizable by a
Scott sentence, continuing the work from this http URL A
cardinal $\kappa$ is characterized by a Scott sentence $\phi_\M$, if $\phi_\M$
has a model of size $\kappa$, but no model of $\kappa^+$.
A set of first-order formulas, whatever the cardinality of the set of
symbols, is equivalent to an independent set.
We study which cardinals are characterizable by a Scott sentence, in the
sense that $\phi_M$ characterizes $\kappa$, if it has a model of size $\kappa$,
but not of $\kappa^+$. We show that if $\aleph_\alpha$ is characterizable by a
Scott sentence and $\beta<\omega_1$, then $\aleph_{\alpha+\beta}$ is
characterizable by a Scott sentence.
