SELFPORTRAITS that bare the best-kept secrets of metals G-E X-RAY D I F F R A C T I O N : fast, exact structural analysis Magnetic television tape . . . high-temperature alloys for jet aircraft and nuclear power equipment — just a few of today's wonder-products developed with a major assist from G-E x-ray diffraction units. All made possible b y "self-portraits" — on film or charted — revealing facts impossible to obtain b y wet-chemical methods. From a large* sample or small» they extract invaluable data relative to crystal structure, atomic and molecular configuration, and grain orientation. G-E x-ray diffraction has performed small miracles in qualitative and quantitative analysis as well, slashing work-time from days to minutes in many cases. Research, raw materials or quality control — its potential is unbounded. Your G-E representative can readily show h o w diffraction can b e adapted to your program.
