RAPIDviewer is a newly developed ImageJ macro script that addresses the limitations of the indexing program RAPID (which enables the indexing of zone-axis electron diffraction patterns from cubic materials) by generating graphical overlays on the experimental patterns, including configurable spot and Kikuchi line drawings. Additional features include orientation sketches, inverse-pole-figure markers and an option for VESTA file export. Examples utilizing selected-area electron diffraction patterns from an austenitic steel, an M23C6 precipitate and an aluminium alloy illustrate the features of the program.

X-ray Diffraction of Biological Samples
According to Bragg's law, when X-rays strike the sample positioned on a stage, the rays are scattered by the electron clouds around the sample atoms. The X-ray diffraction or scattering is caused by constructive interference of the X-ray waves that reflect off the internal...
