WHILE reading the literature on diffraction of X-rays, I came across interesting photographs of X-ray patterns for a few metallic foils—aluminium, cadmium, copper, lead, silver, thallium, tin, zinc, ...

A new X-ray imaging technique that uses sticky, or Scotch, tape as a diffuser to generate “speckle” patterns makes it possible to characterize strongly curved X-ray mirrors in two dimensions with ...

Crystallography is the science of analyzing the pattern produced by shining an X-ray beam through a material sample. A powder sample produces a different pattern than solid crystal. One longstanding ...

Those X-ray blasts are coming in a strange pattern, and that pattern has lasted for months. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission. Here’s how it works.

High-energy X-ray diffraction patterns from a single grain of i-Gd-Cd were taken at the Advanced Photon Source at Argonne National Laboratory with the beam parallel to the five-fold axis.
