Abstract

A novel control of a texture goniometer, which depends on the texture being measured itself, is suggested. In particular, it is suggested that the obsolete control with constant step sizes in both angles is replaced by an adaptive successive refinement of an initial coarse uniform grid to a locally refined grid, where the progressive refinement corresponds to the pattern of preferred crystallographic orientation. The prerequisites of this automated adaptive control is the fast inversion of pole intensities to orientation probabilities in the course of the measurements, and a mathematical method of inversion that does not require a raster of constant step sizes and applies to sharp textures.
