Consider that the x-ray beam points along +y, so that on the detector, the horizontal is x, and the vertical is z. We assume that the x-ray beam hits the flat 2D area detector at 90° at detector (pixel) position $\scriptstyle (x,z)$. The scattering angles are then:

We can also write:

Where we take for granted that q must be positive.

In-plane only

$q=k\sin \theta _{f}$

Components

The momentum transfer components are:

${\begin{alignedat}{2}q_{x}&={\frac {2\pi }{\lambda }}\sin \theta _{f}\cos \alpha _{f}\\q_{y}&={\frac {2\pi }{\lambda }}\left(\cos \theta _{f}\cos \alpha _{f}-1\right)\\q_{z}&={\frac {2\pi }{\lambda }}\sin \alpha _{f}\end{alignedat}}$

Check

As a check of these results, consider:

${\begin{alignedat}{2}q&={\sqrt {q_{x}^{2}+q_{y}^{2}+q_{z}^{2}}}\\&={\frac {2\pi }{\lambda }}{\sqrt {\sin ^{2}\theta _{f}\cos ^{2}\alpha _{f}+\left(\cos \theta _{f}\cos \alpha _{f}-1\right)^{2}+\sin ^{2}\alpha _{f}}}\\{\frac {q}{k}}&={\sqrt {(\sin \theta _{f})^{2}(\cos \alpha _{f})^{2}+\left(\cos \theta _{f}\cos \alpha _{f}-1\right)^{2}+(\sin \alpha _{f})^{2}}}\\{\frac {q^{2}}{k^{2}}}&=\left({\frac {x/d}{\sqrt {1+(x/d)^{2}}}}\right)^{2}\left(\cos \alpha _{f}\right)^{2}+\left(\cos \theta _{f}\cos \alpha _{f}-1\right)^{2}+\left({\frac {z\cos \theta _{f}/d}{\sqrt {1+(z\cos \theta _{f}/d)^{2}}}}\right)^{2}\\&=\left({\frac {x}{\sqrt {d^{2}+x^{2}}}}\right)^{2}\left(\cos \alpha _{f}\right)^{2}+\left(\cos \theta _{f}\cos \alpha _{f}-1\right)^{2}+\left({\frac {z\cos \theta _{f}}{\sqrt {d^{2}+z^{2}\cos ^{2}\theta _{f}}}}\right)^{2}\\&={\frac {x^{2}}{d^{2}+x^{2}}}\left(\cos \alpha _{f}\right)^{2}+\left(\cos \theta _{f}\cos \alpha _{f}-1\right)^{2}+{\frac {z^{2}\cos ^{2}\theta _{f}}{d^{2}+z^{2}\cos ^{2}\theta _{f}}}\\&={\frac {x^{2}}{d^{2}+x^{2}}}{\frac {d^{4}}{d^{2}+z^{2}\cos ^{2}\theta _{f}}}+\left(\cos \theta _{f}{\frac {d^{2}}{\sqrt {d^{2}+z^{2}\cos ^{2}\theta _{f}}}}-1\right)^{2}+{\frac {z^{2}\cos ^{2}\theta _{f}}{d^{2}+z^{2}\cos ^{2}\theta _{f}}}\end{alignedat}}$

Where we used:

${\begin{alignedat}{2}\sin(\arctan[u])&={\frac {u}{\sqrt {1+u^{2}}}}\\\sin \theta _{f}&=\sin(\arctan[x/d])\\&={\frac {x/d}{\sqrt {1+(x/d)^{2}}}}\\&={\frac {x}{\sqrt {d^{2}+x^{2}}}}\end{alignedat}}$

And, we further note that:

${\begin{alignedat}{2}\cos(\arctan[u])&={\frac {1}{\sqrt {1+u^{2}}}}\\\cos \theta _{f}&={\frac {1}{\sqrt {1+(x/d)^{2}}}}\\&={\frac {d^{2}}{\sqrt {d^{2}+x^{2}}}}\end{alignedat}}$
