Hi Tony,
I agree that Figure 1.13 has the radians conversion missing. I generated
the same plot in Excel (both with and without the Pi/180 factor) to confirm
your observation. As you pointed out correctly, in calculations, delta
theta should be in radians.
It's a common mistake that I observe with undergraduates who use Excel for
Bragg's law (since the argument for the sin function in Excel should be in
radians too).
Well spotted!
Jeremy Karl.
