X Rays Diffraction

This book is designed as an advanced guide for experiments in Modern Physics. It covers the X rays Diffraction Experiment: theory, interaction of photons with the matter, sources of x rays, x rays tube, radioactivity, x rays detector, x rays diffraction process, crystals, miller indices and Bravais lattices, Bragg reflection on crystal, symmetry elements, point group of symmetry, fourteen bravais lattices, crystalline systems bravais, 32 crystalline punctual groups, stereogram of the 32 crystalline punctual groups, brillouin zone and the cubic system lattice, real space (direc lattices) and the reciprocal space (reciprocal lattices), the Laue experiment of x rays diffraction on crystal, experimental set up, scintillators and photomultipliers, etc. It is included the deduction of many formulas and the statistical analysis in order to clear the concepts and to get the concordance between the theory and the experiment. It is hoped that this book fills all needs of the students to get the fundaments of advanced experiments and to achieve the interest and motivation of the students for the real nature of the Physics.
