PURPOSE:To enable continuous observation and analysis on changes in condition of a sample, by performing an operation of recording an X-ray diffraction image and an operation of reading image information recorded in parallel to reduce image processing time. CONSTITUTION:When a sample 2 is irradiated with X-rays 6, the X-rays 6 via the sample 2 are projected onto a recording surface of one image recording means 4 located at a projecting position. Then, after the completion of recording on the means 4, a switching means is operated to move the positions of the image recording means 4 and 5 relative to the sample 2 to locate the means 5 at the projecting position, which allows continuous recording of an X-ray diffraction image to ensure a continuous recording. If dimensions along the length of the means 4 and 5 are set at a large value, the projecting position of the X-ray diffraction image can be shifted sequentially along the length thereof to accomplish a continuous recording. Moreover, since a reading position by a reading means 11 can be switched over to either of the image recording means at any time, upon the completion of a recording on any one of the means, reading can be performed from this means in parallel with an operation of recording on the other means. |
