Abstract
A real-time powder diffractometer has been constructed, with which it is possible to follow structural changes taking place in a specimen in minutes or even seconds. Arrangements are available to control and ch ange the temperature of the sample in the diffractometer. A formula de scribing the line width resulting from the non-conventional geometry h as been derived. This formula can be used for tuning the equipment to meet practical requirements. Experiments to assess this formula are pr esented.
