Extract

For the generation of high temperatures in X-ray and neutron diffraction experiments various techniques such as resistance heating, radiation heating, induction heating and gas flame heating have been applied (Aldebert, 1984). Mirror heaters usually employ some kind of focussing geometry to concentrate the radiation emanating from the heating element onto the sample: Two large parabolic mirrors focussing heat radiation from a carbon arc were used by Stecura (1968) to reach sample temperatures up to 1700°C. Hubert et al. (1974) used radiation from a short arc xenon lamp focussed by two parabolical mirrors to reach sample temperatures of 3200°C.
