[edit] X-ray diffraction
Question as to whether SAXS belongs on a list of x-ray diffraction techniques. My physicist friends complain that SAXS and x-ray reflectivity aren't diffraction techniques because the length scale of the radiation (angstroms) is much smaller than the length scale being probed - they would prefer to call SAXS and XRR "x-ray scattering" techniques to differentiate them from conventional XRD techniques, even though they use similar apparatus. Any thoughts? Maybe relegate SAXS and XRR to a "related techniques" section on the main XRD page? Irene Ringworm 17:27, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks for the reference. I'll go ahead and add x-ray reflectivity to the list as well. Irene Ringworm 23:11, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
