The crystallographic alignment of various permanent magnets has been investigated by X-ray pole figure analysis. Attempts have been made to measure the degree of alignment of these sintered magnets using the (105) reflection. It has been shown that the (105) pole figure can be used only to verify small differences in texture in magnets high degree of crystallographic alignment. A comparison between the measured and the calculated L105 index showed good agreement.

Divergent-beam X-ray photography of single crystals by transmission can be used to study the ‘extinction’, that is, the diminution of the transmitted radiation that takes place at the Bragg reflexion angles. The intensity and geometry of the absorption lines observed give useful information about the texture of the crystal. Divergent beam photographs have shown that many crystals of organic compounds are unexpectedly perfect, and that sudden cooling to liquid-air temperatures will increase the mosaic character of their structure by an important factor and make them more suitable for structural analysis by the usual methods. Type I diamonds, and natural ice even near to its melting-point, are also found to possess a high degree of perfection, which cannot be removed by liquid-air treatment. The divergent beam method may be used for the determination of orientation, but it is important that the wave-length of X-rays employed should be correctly related to the size and nature of the crystal. In certain favourable cases it is possible to make precision measurements of lattice constant or of wave-length from divergent beam photographs, without the use of any kind of precision apparatus. By such means it has been shown that the C—C distance in individual diamonds varies from 1541.53(± 0-02) to 1541.27X, (1.54465-1-54440A), a difference presumably due to varying impurity content. Using diamond and a brass anticathode, the Zn Ka 1 wave-length, relative to Cu K Ka 1 as 1537.40X, is found to be 1432.21 ( ± 0-04) X. Temperature control would improve the accuracy of this measurement, which is, however, in good agreement with the latest value obtained by orthodox precision methods.

The complete amino acid sequence of yeast phosphoglycerate mutase comprising 241 residues has been determined. The sequence was deduced from the two cyanogen bromide fragments, and from the peptides derived from these fragments after digestion by a number of proteolytic enzymes. Determination of this sequence now allows a detailed interpretation of the existing high-resolution X-ray crystallographic structure. A comparison of the sequence reported here with the sequences of peptides from phosphoglycerate mutases from other species, and with the sequence of erythrocyte diphosphoglycerate mutase, indicates that these enzymes have a high degree of structural homology. Autolysis of phosphoglycerate mutase by yeast extracts leads to the complete loss of mutase activity, and the formation of electrophoretically distinguishable forms (R. Sasaki, E. Sugimoto & H. Chiba, Archs Biochem. Biophys. 115, 53-61 (1966)). It is apparent from the amino acid sequence that these changes are due to the loss of an 8─12 residue peptide from the C-terminus.

AbstractWork at the Detroit Arsenal has shown that techniques similar to those employed for the determination of pole figures of metals can be utilized for studying organic materials such a a stretched rubber latex. The rubber, when stretched, forms a preferred orientation pattern which is proportional in intensity to the degree of elongation, and which can be used to plot a pole figure.A Geiger-counter spectrometer was used to study samples of rubber stretched 600 to 1000 per cent. Using a transmission technique, the specimens were tilted to the impinging X-ray beam in five degree increments while rotating through 360 degrees to allow the measurement of the diffracted beam from the selected atomic planes at various angles within the specimen. The intensities of the diffracted beam at these angles were plotted on a stereographic net to form the pole figures of the (002) and (012) planes of the stretched rubber. The geometry of the sample arrangements permitted the outer portion of the pole figure to be plotted from alpha angle 0 degrees to alpha angle 45 degrees.

An X-ray fluorescence (XRF) method has been devised for the rapid quantitative determination of 16 minor and trace elements in geological materials. This method, a modification of a direct dilution method (1, 2, 3), uses a sample-to-binder ratio of 85:15 for sample preparation. Pellets prepared by this method are durable and do not deteriorate rapidly when exposed to high X-ray irradiation. Interferences and matrix effects are successfully corrected in actual analyses by employment of multiple linear regression equations.Accuracy and precision have been improved over the method previously used in this laboratory. Detection limits have been lowered for Zn, Rb, Y and Zn approximately by the factor of 2. When interelement corrections are made, the XRF values are found to be in good agreement with the preferred chemical values for the 19 international silicate-rock standards.

AbstractImportant for the understanding of multilayer materials is a determination of their interface structure. The extended x-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) technique can be useful, particularly for interfaces with a high degree of structural disorder. This paper reviews the application of EXAFS to multilayers, and describes the standing wave enhancement of the EXAFS from multilayer interfaces. Examples are given for W-C and Ni- Ti multilayers.

A method is presented for the determination of carbon in solid hydrocarbons using the intensity ratio of incoherent to coherent scattering of x-rays. The method is very rapid with precision at the 95% confidence level of about ±0.3%. The minimum sample weight necessary is 0 2 g. Analysis of samples by the x-ray method shows good agreement with values obtained by microcombustion. Finally a general comparison between different methods for carbon determination in solid hydrocarbons is discussed.

In an attempt to investigate the accuracy of the vector method for crystal texture analysis, a comparison has been made between the inversion result of the pole figure made by X-ray studies using the VM and the inversion result of the pole figure made by ECP. A comparison has been made between the inversion by the pole figure generated by direct measurement of orientations by ECP and the actual orientation distribution (measured by ECP) displayed in the same mode. The materials studied were recrystallized Fe–3% Si and Fe–50% Ni. The main findings were:• In the mean intensities of each individual Box, the inversion results of pole figures made from orientations determined by ECP were in good agreement with the inversion from (100) pole figures made by X-ray or actual orientation distribution (made by ECP) displayed in the same mode as the vector method.• For Fe–3% Si, quite a good agreement was obtained between the results inverted from X-ray pole figure and the direct measurement by ECP for the intensity distribution of minor texture component along ζ angle. It was concluded from these investigations that the inversion of the pole figure by the vector method is accurate enough for most practical purposes.

Determination of the amount of cubic and tetragonal phase in yttria–zirconia using high-angle XRD (x-ray diffraction) has been complicated by problems of resolution and interpretation. The evidence, from electron diffraction studies, for a c→t shear transformation also needs to be taken into account. Two compositions, a 3 and a 5.7 mol % Y2O3−ZrO2, were sintered and thermally treated at different temperatures between 1450°and 1700°C. X-ray diffraction traces revealed the anticipated tetragonal (400) and (004) reflections. The region of the diffraction pattern that was thought to arise from the cubic phase could be best interpreted as a second tetragonal phase t'. The original amount of cubic phase computed from the t' reflections showed good agreement with the phase diagram of Scott. The lattice parameters of the t' phase were determined, and the volume of the tetragonal (t') unit cell was calculated.
