Abstract: An X-ray scattering apparatus having a sample holder for aligning and/or orienting a sample to be analyzed by X-ray scattering, a first X-ray beam delivery system having a first X-ray source, and a first monochromator being arranged upstream of the sample holder for generating and directing a first X-ray beam along a beam path in a propagation direction towards the sample holder is disclosed. A distal X-ray detector arranged downstream of the sample holder and being movable, in particular in a motorized way, along the propagation direction as to detect the first X-ray beam and X-rays scattered at different scattering angles from the sample as the first X-ray beam delivery system is configured to focus the first X-ray beam onto a focal spot on or near the distal X-ray detector when placed at its largest distance from the sample holder is also disclosed.

Abstract: A method for X-Ray Scattering material analysis, in particular Small Angle X-ray Scattering material analysis for generating and directing an incident X-ray beam along a propagation direction to a sample held in a sample environment executing a sample measurement process. An apparatus adapted to carry out such a method is also disclosed.

Abstract: An X-ray scattering apparatus has a sample holder for aligning and orienting a sample to be analyzed by X-ray scattering, an X-ray beam delivery system arranged upstream of the sample holder for generating and directing a direct X-ray beam along a propagation direction towards the sample holder, a proximal X-ray detector arranged downstream of the sample holder as to let the direct X-ray beam pass and detect X rays scattered from the sample, and a distal X-ray detector arranged downstream of the sample holder and movable along the propagation direction (X) of the direct X-ray beam in which the proximal X-ray detector is also movable essentially along the propagation direction of the direct X-ray beam.
