Optimization of neutron texture experiment by statistical simulation of pole figures with normal distribution
A new statistical method of calculation of normal distribution of the rotation group is obtained with the central limit theorem. Monte Carlo method makes possible the statistical simulation of texture in polycrystalline sample. The simulation of neutron texture experiment allows to obtain the pole figures with smaller error of measurement.
