Resonant X-ray enhancement of the Auger effect in high-Z atoms, molecules, and nanoparticles: potential biomedical applications.
It is shown that X-ray absorption can be considerably enhanced at resonant energies corresponding to K-shell excitation into higher shells with electron vacancies following Auger emissions in high-Z elements and compounds employed in biomedical applications. We calculate Auger resonant probabilities and cross sections to obtain total mass attenuation coefficients with resonant cross sections an...
متن کاملMultiwavelength anomalous diffraction at high x-ray intensity.
The multiwavelength anomalous diffraction (MAD) method is used to determine phase information in x-ray crystallography by employing anomalous scattering from heavy atoms. X-ray free-electron lasers (FELs) show promise for revealing the structure of single molecules or nanocrystals, but the phase problem remains largely unsolved. Because of the ultrabrightness of x-ray FEL, samples experience se...
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 کاملTowards phasing using high X-ray intensity
X-ray free-electron lasers (XFELs) show great promise for macromolecular structure determination from sub-micrometre-sized crystals, using the emerging method of serial femtosecond crystallography. The extreme brightness of the XFEL radiation can multiply ionize most, if not all, atoms in a protein, causing their scattering factors to change during the pulse, with a preferential 'bleaching' of ...
متن کاملX-ray Reeection in Galactic Black Hole Candidates: Smeared Edge Prooles and Resonant Auger Destruction
We consider the spectra of Thomson-thick, geometrically-thin accretion discs around Galactic black hole candidates in the reeection model and compute their iron K edges and iron K lines. We compare the smeared iron K edge prooles that we compute with observation and nd them to be a satisfactory description of the data. We nd that a combination of Doppler broadening and resonant Auger destructio...
