This package contains the commands neeed to calculate x-ray and
electron diffraction intensities based on kinematic diffraction
theory. Detailed discription of the computation can be found in the
following works:

diffraction analysis of Ni [010] symmetric tilt grain boundaries,
Modelling and Simulation in Materials Science and Engineering, 21

---------------------------------
User-diffraction includes:
1) compute_xrd : calculate x-ray diffraction intensities as a
scattering angle (2theta)
2) compute_xrd_consts.h : coefficients used for x-ray atomic
scattering factors listed by element
3) compute saed : calculate 3D diffraction intensities for the
purpose of creating selected area electron
diffraction patterns
4) compute_xrd_consts.h : coefficients used for electron atomic
scattering factors listed by element
3) fix saed/vtk : writes 3D diffraction intensity data calculated
with "compute saed" in vtk format
See the doc pages for these commands for detailed usage instructions.
There are example scripts for using this package in
examples/USER/diffraction.
