'''Bragg's law''' is an equation that predicts the angles at which one will observe coherent [[scattering]] (diffraction) from a crystal lattice. It is essentially a special-case of the more general phenomenon of scattering. The law is given by:
:<math>n\lambda = 2d\sin\theta \,,</math>
where ''n'' is an integer, ''λ'' is the [[wavelength]] of the incident wave (e.g. [[X-ray]] or neutron), ''d'' is the spacing between the planes in the atomic [[lattice]], and ''θ'' is the angle between the incident ray and the scattering planes.
