Abstract

This educational module gives users a way to see how changing the experimental parameters (e.g. lattice constant, X-ray wavelength, temperature) can affect the resulting powder XRD spectra. Interactive widgets in the Jupyter notebook allow you to adjust parameters and view the resulting plot right away. 

Beyond the main objective, some additional learning outcomes are structure factor selection rules, XRD intensity factors, and basic scientific computing techniques in Python.
