ABSTRACT: The ability to display and inspect
powder diffraction data quickly and efficiently is a central part of the data
analysis process. Whilst many computer programs are capable of displaying
powder data, their focus is typically on structure solution. The research proposes
a lightweight powder diffraction visualization program with the capability of
fast rendering to compare
powder data sets. Based on the success of the earlier version and user
requests, Jpowder has been extended to display powder diffraction datasets using stack plot, which options to
use meta-data for crystallographic powder diffraction data in XML format. Such stack
plots allows crystallographers to identify phase transitions in materials.
