soil samples were collected from seven sites in and around the metropolitan area of mexicocity. the locations were chosen as possible sources of fugitive dusts which contribute to suspended particulate matter in the atmosphere of mexico city. x-ray fluorescence (xrf) was used to determine the concentrations of several major elements (si, k, ca, ti, mn, and fe), as well as of other trace element...

The use of X-ray diffraction to identify crystals from the fluid obtained from a brain tap is illustrated. The procedure for making this type of analysis is described and a very brief description of X-ray diffraction process given. Photographs of the powder diffraction patterns are included, as well as a table giving the interplanar distances and relative intensities corresponding to the patter...

We demonstrate that the soft X-ray diffraction pattern from a micron-size noncrystalline specimen can be recorded and inverted to form a high-resolution image. The phase problem is overcome by oversampling the diffraction pattern. The image is obtained using an iterative algorithm. The technique provides a method for X-ray microscopy requiring no highresolution X-ray optical elements or detecto...

in this research nickel zinc ferrite nanoparticles with composition of ni1-xznxfe2o4 (where x=0, 0.3, 0.7, 1) were synthesized by a sol-gel method at 600 °c for 5 hours. the structure of nanoparticles was studied using x-ray diffraction pattern. the lattice parameter of ferrite nanoparticles was calculated and indicates lattice constant of nanoparticles depend on zinc concentration. the crystal...

X-ray diffraction is a commonly used experimental technique for identifying the structure of crystalline materials[3]. A crystalline material has its atoms arranged in periodic lattices with long-range symmetry. As a result, it scatters a beam of X-rays in well-defined patterns. Analysis of an X-ray diffraction pattern produced by a material yields extensive information about the structure of t...
