A STUDY OF AN AUTOMATION PROCEDURE FOR X-RAY DIFFRACTOMETRY.

Abstract

The advantages of automation with respect to x-ray or neutron diffraction equipment has led to several approaches to the automation. A system which contains a small online computer could offer the additional features of closedloop feed-back dicision-making capabilities. Such a system was built and a study of the system is reported on here. The system, its method of use, and results obtained with it are described. The system offers many operational advantages over the previous approaches. (Author)
