Abstract: An X-ray scattering apparatus having a sample holder for aligning and/or orienting a sample to be analyzed by X-ray scattering, a first X-ray beam delivery system having a first X-ray source, and a first monochromator being arranged upstream of the sample holder for generating and directing a first X-ray beam along a beam path in a propagation direction towards the sample holder is disclosed. A distal X-ray detector arranged downstream of the sample holder and being movable, in particular in a motorized way, along the propagation direction as to detect the first X-ray beam and X-rays scattered at different scattering angles from the sample as the first X-ray beam delivery system is configured to focus the first X-ray beam onto a focal spot on or near the distal X-ray detector when placed at its largest distance from the sample holder is also disclosed.
