CONEX, a program for angular calibration and averaging of two-dimensional powder scattering patterns

CONEX is a Windows application for converting X-ray powder patterns measured on flat two-dimensional detectors into one-dimensional scattering patterns. It is based on the rigorous use of calibration samples to determine the three-dimensional position of the detector, which enables one to correct the data for geometrical distortions, even when the detector is highly tilted and not centered on the beam.
