DiffPy – Atomic Structure Analysis in Python
- mirimir 11y agoNice! Way back in the day, I worked in an x-ray diffraction lab. It was my job to collect diffraction data. After aligning a crystal in the goniometer, I would measure diffracted energy on a spherical grid, by manually moving the detector around, and recording data on paper. We worked "hot", because occulting the primary beam took too long. There was a beam trap, of course. And not much got diffracted. But you had to stay conscious of the primary beam's path.
