Abstract
A method is given for choosing the relative counting times for the sample-in-container and empty container parts of a fixed-duration scattering experiment in order to minimize the statistical error on the container-corrected intensity. The method is applied to angular-dispersive diffraction experiments, and the effect on the fractional error of mis-estimating the relative run times is considered.
