Abstract
A flash x‐ray diffraction system is described which weighs less than 27.2 kg and which permits Laue transmission x‐ray diffraction patterns to be obtained with exposure times as short as several microseconds using multiple pulses of 60 nsec duration each. The system consists of a pulsed x‐ray generator incorporating a tungsten target beryllium window x‐ray tube and a specially designed collimator. Diffraction photographs are presented which permit comparison of the pattern obtained with the portable flash x‐ray diffraction system with that obtained using a conventional x‐ray diffraction system incorporating a heated filament tube.Keywords
