X-ray spectroscopy is an important tool for scientific analysis. While the earliest
demonstration experiments were realised in the laboratory, with the advent of synchrotron …

The most characteristic feature of hydrothermal deposits of gold is its intimate association
with pyrite. Microscopically visible gold occurs in pyrite ore as metal particles of> 0.1 µm in …

X-ray spectroscopy has had a significant and continually growing impact on catalysis
research for nearly 50 years. In particular, the ability to obtain element selective electronic …

We report the development of a laboratory-based Rowland-circle monochromator that
incorporates a low power x-ray (bremsstrahlung) tube source, a spherically bent crystal …

We present a multicrystal Johann-type hard x-ray spectrometer (∼ 5–18 keV) recently
developed, installed, and operated at the Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Lightsource. The …

A multi-crystal wavelength dispersive hard x-ray spectrometer with high-energy resolution
and large solid angle collection is described. The instrument is specifically designed for time …

The study of the speciation of highly diluted elements by X‐ray absorption spectroscopy
(XAS) is extremely challenging, especially in environmental biogeochemistry sciences. Here …

An end-station for resonant inelastic X-ray scattering and (resonant) X-ray emission
spectroscopy at beamline ID20 of ESRF–The European Synchrotron is presented. The …

The theoretical prediction of x-ray absorption spectra (XAS) has become commonplace in
electronic structure theory. The ability to better model and understand L-edge spectra is of …

X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), X‐ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) and X‐ray
Raman scattering (XRS) spectroscopy are the element‐specific tools providing local …
