X-ray powder diffraction exploits the interaction between x-rays and matter to study the structural and microstructural properties of materials. X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD) is a powerful technique ...

With recent advances in data analysis algorithms, X-ray detectors and synchrotron sources, small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) has become much more accessible to the structural biology community.

The Smithsonian Institution and Synchrotron Soleil of France announced a new partnership between the organizations to use the power of the third-generation synchrotron to study and preserve priceless ...

While synchrotron X-ray beams produce state-of-the-art detail, there are only about 70 facilities worldwide. Research teams must put together project proposals for "beam time." Accepted projects often ...

Synchrotron radiation sources generate highly brilliant light pulses, ranging from infrared to hard X-rays, which can be used to gain deep insights into complex materials. Using concrete examples, ...

Traveling at nearly the speed of light, electrons emit intense synchrotron radiation, as explained in this video. Credit: University of Saskatchewan Alexander Moewes is a high-energy physicist.

In this episode of Physics World Weekly, we’re celebrating the birthday of a European project that has shone a bright light over science for the past three decades. The European Synchrotron Radiation ...
