ABS# Synchrotron facilities with improved equipment will grant the
     execution of very advanced scattering experiments to every
     interested polymer scientist. The patterns recorded are
     two-dimensional, high-resolution, and low-noise images. They
     permit to monitor structure evolution during the processing of
     polymer materials with repeat rates of several Hertz. In a
     different class of novel experiments the structure gradient
     inside of graded polymer materials will be determined with a
     spatial resolution of less than 1 æm. Scattering patterns must be
     complete. In order both to record complete patterns, and to
     evaluate them within tolerable time it appears reasonable to
     study parts with fiber symmetry. In the present paper a review of
     corresponding methodical work and the results of test experiments
     is presented that has recently been compiled in the group of the
     author.
