The theoretical expressions of Cooper & Sayer [J. Appl. Cryst. (1975), 8, 615] for the peak shift from the true Bragg angle and for the peak broadening in powder neutron-diffraction patterns are confirmed experimentally for detectors with finite aperture. It is shown that these factors can be important even at relatively large scattering angles.
