| | | | X-ray diffraction
a phenomenon in which the atoms of a crystal, by virtue of their uniform spacing, cause an interference pattern of the waves present in an incident beam of X rays. The atomic planes of the crystal ...
| | | | diffraction
the spreading of waves around obstacles. Diffraction takes place with sound; with electromagnetic radiation, such as light, X-rays, and gamma rays; and with very small moving particles such as ...
| | | | X ray
 any electromagnetic radiation of an extremely short wavelength produced by the deceleration of charged particles or the transitions of electrons in atoms. As can be seen in the , the wavelengths of X ...
| | | | Laue diffraction pattern
in X rays, a regular array of spots on a photographic emulsion resulting from X rays scattered by certain groups of parallel atomic planes within a crystal. When a thin, pencil-like beam of X rays ...
| | | | Results of X-ray diffraction studies
from the protein article
 Most knowledge concerning secondary and tertiary structure of globular proteins has been obtained by the examination of their crystals using X-ray diffraction. In this technique X rays are allowed to ...
| | | | X-ray emission
from the analysis article
X-ray emission spectrometry is the group of analytical methods in which emitted X-ray radiation is monitored. X rays are emitted when an electron in an outer orbital falls into a vacancy in an inner ...
| | | | X rays as waves
from the X ray article
According to classical electromagnetic theory, the deceleration of electrons will produce electromagnetic radiation, in the same way that accelerated electrons in a radio antenna produce radio waves. ...
| | | | Detection and measurement of X rays
from the X ray article
A beam of X rays is characterized by its intensity and its spectral (energy) distribution, and a number of methods for measuring these properties have been developed.
| | | | Scattering of X rays
from the quantum mechanics article
Soon scientists were faced with the fact that another form of radiation, X rays, also exhibits both wave and particle properties. Max von Laue of Germany had shown in 1912 that crystals can be used ...
| | | | Applications of X rays
from the X ray article
Because of the many varied properties of X rays, they have been applied to a wide range of medical, industrial, and scientific problems. Some of these are differential absorption, quantitative ...
