Large dynamic range small-angle diffractometer D22

Small-angle scattering is a technique that measures the deviation to small angles (much less than one degree to several degrees) of an X-ray or neutron beam due to structures of small size in the sample. “Small” means dimensions of a few tenths to about 100 nanometres, such as clusters in alloys, polymers, or biological macromolecules.

D22 GEORGE


GEORGE is a multi-purpose auto-pilot program, based on LAMP, written in IDL. Before attempting to use GEORGE it is strongly advised that you read the LAMP Book. With GEORGE, you can start counts, scans, move motors and perform all the functions of MAD, the main instrument control program. In addition, GEORGE provides an intelligent level of instrument control via programs called "DIALS".

GEORGE should be run solely from the instrument control DEC Alpha computer. For details on how to start up GEORGE see below.

 

GEORGE is a new program, and as such cannot yet be regarded as "stable".  However this manual will cover the basic points of instrument control via the GEORGE interface. For further information see your local contact!
