Today we had the new X-ray source arriving. It’s not working yet, but its imminent arrival spurred me into action to mount the Ultra-SAXS components […]

Generator current setting versus total detected countrates for three samples of glassy carbon.

Does it matter part 5.1: Detector linearity

2015-03-17 Brian Pauw 3

Time for another short investigation into data corrections? Good. Let’s take a quick look at the linearity of our Bruker HiStar detector.

Combination found in Japan.

There is a very important meeting coming up soon for all those who dedicate themselves to excellence in small-angle scattering, and I for one, am […]

Calculating scattering by hand – example 1

2015-03-03 Brian Pauw 0

Those who read the older SAXS literature will note liberal use of Fourier transforms to calculate the scattering behaviour of odd-shaped particles. Likewise, the effects […]
