Synopsis: An improved laboratory SAXS camera based on the Kratky slit system is presented. The divergent X-ray beam is collimated by a Göbel mirror and image-plate detection guarantees linear response even though the intensity is increased by a factor of ten.

Synopsis: The determination of three-dimensional reflection coordinates for an area-detector diffractometer equipped with an Euler or Kappa goniostat is presented. The method is based on comparison of related images obtained from two crystal rotations such that the same reflections are registered, but on different positions on the detector.

Synopsis: Long-chain lead alkanethiolates prepared from pure mercaptans provide numerous sharp long-spacing and low-order lines and also very many strong high-order lines between the lines of silicon standard reference material. The resulting statistical accuracy thus extends exact calibration of X-ray diffractometers to intermediate and large d values without other validation or data.

Synopsis: Analytical expressions for the absolute change of the primary reflection intensity due to multiple diffraction are given in the kinematical approach. It is shown that satisfactory agreement between experiment and theory can be obtained for a mosaic (diamond) as well as for a perfect crystal (silicon) even in the case of strong reflections.

Synopsis: Single crystals of Cu-2.5 at.% Ti have been studied by small-angle and large-angle X-ray scattering to determine the displacements induced by the formation and the coarsening of ordered Cu4Ti precipitates. The variation of the atomic scattering factor of Cu near its absorption edge was used to confirm the nature of the precipitates and to show that the scattering appearing near Bragg peaks was due to the displacements of the atoms from their positions, induced by the formation of the precipitates, and not to the segregation of the Ti atoms.
