 + 
 +===== Introduction ===== 
 + 
 +From the original manual, PolyXSim is a program which simulates 3DXRD diffraction patterns ​of polycrystalline (multiphase) materials for the “far-field” case, as it is called in 3DXRD community, e.g. with the detector far away from the sample (i.e. at 400 mm for instance). For high pressure diamond anvil cell experiments,​ it is the standard case. 
 + 
 +The potential use include 
 +  * Training at handling multigrain crystallography data, 
 +  * Simulating 3DXRD diffraction patterns for debugging of indexing, overlap and integration routines 
 +  * Simulating patterns for a specific material to estimate the degree of spot overlap, and thereby feasibility,​ before an actual experiment is performed. This implies some statistics on the images – to be handled by a separate module. 
 + 
 +The new page for PolyXSim source code is within the [[https://​github.com/​FABLE-3DXRD/​PolyXSim|FABLE-3DXRD project at github]]. There is an old source code at the [[https://​sourceforge.net/​p/​fable/​code/​HEAD/​tree/​simulation/​PolyXSim/​trunk/​|old fable website at sourceforge]]. 
 + 
 +The original manual is available at this page [[https://​sourceforge.net/​p/​fable/​wiki/​PolyXSim/​]]. 
 + 
 +The software is free but with a copyright to Henning Osholm Sørensen, Risø National Laboratory, DK-4000 Roskilde, Denmark
