JSR– XFELs, DLSRs and beamline articles

SR Conference Proceedings and JSR.

This issue brings together papers from the 6th International Conference on Synchrotron Radiation Instrumentation (SRI'97) held in Japan in August 1997. This is one of the major synchrotron radiation conferences, held every three years, and has so far published its proceedings in a variety of journals. Now that the synchrotron radiation community have a journal of their own it is only natural th...

XAFS conference proceedings and JSR.

This issue brings together papers from the 10th International Conference on X-ray Absorption Fine Structure (XAFS X) held in Chicago in August 1998. This is one of the major synchrotron radiation conferences, held every two years since 1981 when the ®rst international meeting of XAFS experts was held in Daresbury, coincident with the operation of the ®rst of the second-generation dedicated sync...

response articles: micro and macro analysis

the present study reports an analysis of response articles in four different disciplines in the social sciences, i.e., linguistics, english for specific purposes (esp), accounting, and psychology. the study has three phases: micro analysis, macro analysis, and e-mail interview. the results of the micro analysis indicate that a three-level linguistic pattern is used by the writers in order to cr...

Free-electron lasers and JSR.

XFELs for structure and dynamics in biology

The development and application of the free-electron X-ray laser (XFEL) to structure and dynamics in biology since its inception in 2009 are reviewed. The research opportunities which result from the ability to outrun most radiation-damage effects are outlined, and some grand challenges are suggested. By avoiding the need to cool samples to minimize damage, the XFEL has permitted atomic resolut...
