Impact of hollow-atom formation on coherent x-ray scattering at high intensity
X-ray free-electron lasers (FELs) are promising tools for structural determination of macromolecules via coherent x-ray scattering. During ultrashort and ultraintense x-ray pulses with an atomic-scale wavelength, samples are subject to radiation damage and possibly become highly ionized, which may influence the quality of x-ray scattering patterns. We develop a toolkit to treat detailed ionizat...
متن کاملCalculation of x-ray scattering patterns from nanocrystals at high x-ray intensity
We present a generalized method to describe the x-ray scattering intensity of the Bragg spots in a diffraction pattern from nanocrystals exposed to intense x-ray pulses. Our method involves the subdivision of a crystal into smaller units. In order to calculate the dynamics within every unit, we employ a Monte-Carlo-molecular dynamics-ab-initio hybrid framework using real space periodic boundary...
متن کاملAcquiring molecular interference functions of X-ray coherent scattering for breast tissues by combination of simulation and experimental methods
Background: Recently, it has been indicated that X-ray coherent scatter from biological tissues can be used to access signature of tissue. Some scientists are interested in studying this effect to get early detection of breast cancer. Since experimental methods for optimization are time consuming and expensive, some scientists suggest using simulation. Monte Carlo (MC) codes are the best...
متن کاملDynamics of hollow atom formation in intense x-ray pulses probed by partial covariance mapping.
When exposed to ultraintense x-radiation sources such as free electron lasers (FELs) the innermost electronic shell can efficiently be emptied, creating a transient hollow atom or molecule. Understanding the femtosecond dynamics of such systems is fundamental to achieving atomic resolution in flash diffraction imaging of noncrystallized complex biological samples. We demonstrate the capacity of...
متن کاملSoft x-ray coherent magnetic scattering experiments
The increased coherence of third generation synchrotron sources allows us to port laser techniques such as holography and dynamical light scattering from the visible to the x-ray spectral range. In addition to the obvious improvement in resolution, the x-ray range may allow for new variants that are not possible in the visible, as exemplified by techniques that use the strong magnetic contrast ...
