Abstract
Errors in the paper by Kanaki, Jackson, Hall-Wilton, Piscitelli, Kirstein & Andersen [J. Appl. Cryst. (2013), 46, 1031–1037] are corrected.
In equation (5) of Kanaki et al. (2013 ▶), a factor of 2 is missing from the wavelength contribution to the Q resolution. The correct equation is
 |
Figs. 12 and 13 of Kanaki et al. (2013 ▶) are updated as Figs. 1 ▶ and 2 ▶ of the current article to reflect the correction.

Q resolution for a 10 m-long and 0.5 m-wide tube detector, as a function of distance from the sample.
Figure 2.
Normalized Q resolution for a 10 m-long and 0.5 m-wide tube detector, as a function of distance from the sample.
In equation (6) of Kanaki et al. (2013 ▶), the brackets are missing a square root. The correct version is
