Figure 1
The Bragg scattering geometry of the experiment. ki is the incident wavevector, kf is the diffracted wavevector and kfki is the scattering vector. ki and kf define the scattering plane and k is the vector perpendicular to that plane. Rotation of the crystal around ki (a) corresponds to motion of the Bragg peak around the Debye–Scherrer cone and rotation around k (b) corresponds to motion of the Bragg peak across the powder ring. Rotational around the scattering vector kfki (c) is not observable.
