Quasi-elastic X-ray scattering divergence analysis calculation
Description
Abstract A FORTRAN 77 program is described that enables a numerical investigation to be made of the variation of instrumental resolution corrections with apparatus configuration for quasi-elastic X-ray scattering. The program is useful for scattering from phonons, defects, low angle Comptom processes and all instances where the energy change on scattering is at most a small fraction of the incident energy. Account can be taken of an irregular incident beam distribution (in angle and in space), a sampl... Title of program: DIANA88 Catalogue Id: ABJK_v1_0 Nature of problem The program addresses the problem that an inelastic (x-ray) scattering experiment necessarily records scattering smeared over a spatially spread inhomogeneous diverging incident beam, a sample mosaic spread and a finite area detector. Using measured or simulated apparatus characteristics and sample orientations, the program evalutes these effects on given theoretical intensities.
