Dear Tony,

I think that you are right. d_theta in eq. 40 should be in radians and not in 
degrees.
It’s nice that people are reading books carefully.

Objet : Figure 1.13 of Book Powder Diffraction Theory and Practice

Dear Rietvelders,

I might not be the first to ask this question, but I found the Figure 1.13 of 
book “Powder Diffraction - Theory and Practice” is problematic.
The equation 40 on the previous page is correct. But the authors seems wrongly 
treated “Δθ” as angle not radian when plot Figure 1.13, therefore the y- axis 
in Figure 1.13 missed a factor of “Pi/180”.

Thanks in advance if anyone could confirm this.
