Abstract
Angle calculations are derived for the operation of a '4S+2D' six-circle X- ray or neutron diffractometer. The six degrees of freedom [four sample-orie nting ('4S') and two detector-orienting ('2D')] of the diffractometer are u sed to control the scattering vector and a reference vector in the laborato ry frame of reference. Several modes of operation unavailable in other type s of diffractometer are presented.
