Brutus - Powder XRD Indexing

This program uses a system-specific, exhaustive search to find potential unit cells based on the first 20 peaks.

  • Cubic: Tests single peaks.
  • Tetra/Hexa: Solves using peak pairs.
  • Ortho: Solves using peak triplets (GPU).
  • Monoclinic: Solves using peak quadruplets (GPU).
  • Triclinic: Solves using peak sextuplets (GPU).

All trial cells are refined, scored (M(20)), and analyzed for space groups. For a full breakdown, read the technical guide.
