Abstract
MAX3D is a program for the visualization of 3Ddiffraction data. This includes everything seen by thearea detector – not just harvested Bragg spots. The inputmay be transmission data from a single crystal, reflectiondata from a textured solid, or diffraction from a thinnanoparticle film on a substrate. Tools have beendeveloped for probing, imaging and exporting selectedareas of reciprocal space in terms of 2Theta or HKL. Ithelps you understand your sample, recognize diffusescattering and troubleshoot difficult problems. It is apowerful tool for generating teaching materials from realsamples. MAX3D is available at no charge for Academicresearchers.

Looking for subtle changes in 2θposition of line/arc/shell to indicate orientation dependent residual stresses. Hard to see visually – need mathematical analysis.

A ‘pole’ is a unit vector along a diffraction vector representing one grain. For a random powder the number of poles is normalized to 1. Textured samples show a variation in normalized pole density with orientation.
