Abstract:
The
present
paper
suggests
a design
of a
high-resolution
powder
diffractometer
facility
that
fits the
low and
medium
power
research
reactors.
The
design
choice
guarantees
the
acceptable
cost of
a high-standard
facility.
Some
components
can be
created
in-house,
while
the
design
also
includes
detailed
information
about
the
commercially
available
components.
It is
highly
recommended
to carry
out
Monte
Carlo
simulations
of
realistic
expected
luminosity
and
resolution
parameters
of the
finally
designed
and
approved
instrument
in
advance.
Monte
Carlo
simulations
can
eventually
show
which
components
should
be
modified
in order
to
achieve
the
expected
resolution
and
luminosity
parameters
of the
facility.
