Abstract
The geometries for scanning reciprocal space for a fibre on a neutron single-crystal diffractometer are considered. Geometrical relationship s are derived for the particular case of D19 at the Institut Laue-Lang evin that can be readily generalized for other instruments and for the same instrument with a different detection system. An optimum data-co llection strategy is proposed. Methods for processing neutron fibre da ta collected using this strategy are described and illustrated by stud ies on cellulose.
