New online lecture series: #theLightStuff
I’m very excited to announce a new online lecture series that we are starting after the success of last week’s online Better with Scattering workshop. […]
Now you see me, now you don’t: detectability in SAXS
Detectability of your analyte in scattering experiments, i.e. whether or not you can detect the scattering from the bit of your sample that you’re interested […]
Alumina membranes revisited
A while ago, we measured some modified alumina membranes for a colleague of ours, and we talked about it here. These membranes are thin alumina […]
Video introducing the MAUS
Just before the holidays, I finally found a moment to record the video I have been planning to make for a long time: a video […]
What was & will be, 2019/2020 edition
We have arrived at the end of another year, which means we’ll take a look at how we fared (or rather, how we held on […]
“Better with Scattering” – now with a parallel course at the Diamond Light Source!
Just a quick head’s up before the holidays: as I mentioned in the previous blog post, there will be two X-ray scattering courses running in […]
Better with Scattering 2020: an introductory practical workshop to X-ray scattering
After this year’s successful trial, we’re gearing up for the second run in March 2020, here at the main BAM campus in Berlin. The four-day […]
Capillary gluing howto
There have been discussions on Twitter, even amongst experienced X-ray scientists, on how to glue a capillary in place (see the discussions following this tweet). […]
A PEEK flow-through capillary holder
Background subtraction and in-situ experiments are both made easier with the provision of a good flow-through cell. While we have a stainless steel cell with […]
Everything and the kitchen sink: Correcting X-ray data for everything – Lecture Video
Below, you can see a seminar on data corrections by me and Tim Snow from the Diamond Light source. The talk was given at the […]
