Overview
- Presents the content starting from the very basic deductions and evolving continuously to fundamental concepts without skipping key demonstrations
- Teaches how to implement theoretical concepts for simulating the X-ray scattering by a variety of materials organized by increasing level of complexity
- Equips readers with a package of computer routines, providing broad knowledge in the field of applied X-ray physics
- Provides solved exercises in all covered topics, including computer routines for practice, plus chapter-end exercises and questions, definitions of key terms, and boxed results and key formulae
- Teaches how to program a high-level computer language (MatLab)
- Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras
Part of the book series: Graduate Texts in Physics (GTP)
