Further Reading

I would highly recommend the introductory-level monograph:
Olaf Engler and Valerie Randle:
Introduction to Texture Analysis - Macrotexture, Microtexture, and Orientation Mapping. 2nd edition. Taylor & Francis Group / CRC Press, Boca Raton (FL) 2010. ISBN 978-1-4200-6365-3

Further reading on the Orientation Density Function (ODF) is found in:

L. Spiess, G. Teichert, R. Schwarzer, H. Behnken and C. Genzel: Moderne Röntgenbeugung - Röntgendiffraktometrie für Materialwissenschaftler, Physiker und Chemiker. 3rd extended edition.
Springer Spektrum, Wiesbaden 2019 (ISBN 978-3-8348-1219-3)

This textbook on modern X-ray diffraction (in German) includes in Chapter 11: Röntgenographische Texturanalyse (XRD Texture Analysis) an introduction to X-ray polefigure measurement and ODF analysis, and in Chapter 14: Spezielle Verfahren (Special Methods) a brief outline of EBSD and Kossel diffraction.

 

An introduction to Backscatter Kikuchi Diffraction (BKD) and "Automated EBSD" is found on the website
     http://www.ebsd.info
and an introduction to advanced EBSD systems (in German) on
     http://www.ebsd.de .
