Dear Tony, thanks for pointing this out. You are absolutely right. This mistake slipped our proof reading. All the best, Robert. Wang : 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 pro

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

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. Radovan [iycr_square_web] Radovan Cerny Laboratoire de Cristallographie Université de Genève 24, quai Ernest-Ansermet CH

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,
