Abstract
The use of X-ray and neutron diffraction techniques to investigate both short and intermediate range order in glasses is briefly reviewed with an emphasis on the correct methods of extracting structural parameters from experimental data. The important role played by complementary modelling studies and the need for accurate quantitative comparisons between the predictions of models and experiment are discussed. It is concluded that modern diffraction experiments are capable of yielding data of high quality which, when combined with the latest computer modelling techniques, should considerably enhance the present state of knowledge concerning the structure of the vitreous state.
