✤✤ This title starts with some basic notions concerning diffraction by polycrystals and some of the most common combined analysis instrumental set-ups are detailed ✤✤ The book deals with automatic phase indexing, a necessary step to solve a structure abinitio. Since its effect prevails on real samples where textures are often stabilized, quantitative texture analysis is also detailed ✤✤ Also discussed are microstructures of the powder diffraction profiles; quantitative phase analysis from the Rietveld analysis; residual stress analysis for isotropic and anisotropic materials; specular x-ray reflectivity and the various associated models ✤✤ Finally, the book introduces the combined analysis concept, showing all the dilemmas that appear when one looks at only one part of the analyses.
