Abstract

This paper describes a set of interactive computer programs written in FORTRAN IV and implemented on a POP 11/34 equipped with RLO-2 ten Mbyte discs and an RSX-11M operating system to assist in x-ray diffraction phase analysis. The packing of the data base will be described along with the various interactive programs that access it. The search/match package is designed more as a set of aids for the diffractionist rather than as a single totally automated search/match program, the procedure adapted by many of the xray diffraction (XRD) equipment manufacturers. The approach taken allows the analyst to direct the analysis procedure by utilizing different search/match programs or specifying various options within a given program.
