Like people, materials evolve over time. They also behave differently when they are stressed and relaxed. Scientists looking to measure the dynamics of how materials change have developed a new ...

The work points toward a future in which X-ray beamlines, such as those at the APS, are more autonomous and better able to track complex chemical reactions as they happen. “This brings us closer to ...

Two-time correlation functions of the ce-based MG measured by HP-XPCS at different pressures during compression. At each pressure, the width of the reddish diagonal contour is proportional to the ...

Soft materials are ubiquitous in our daily lives, from the food we eat to the products we use to the materials that make up our bodies. Some examples of soft materials include cream, toothpaste, and ...

Mathematicians have developed an algorithm to decipher the rotational dynamics of twisting particles in large complex systems from the X-ray scattering patterns observed in X-ray photon correlation ...

X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy is based on the same principle as all photoelectron spectroscopy methods. If a molecule or material is irradiated with light of a known energy above the ionization ...
