We review some of the ways that X-ray observations provide unique information on radio galaxies. Thermal bremsstrahlung X-ray emission provides detailed data on ambient densities and temperatures. These parameters in turn can be used for…
Improving resolution and sensitivity will widen possible medical applications of magnetic particle imaging. Pulsed excitation promises such benefits, at the cost of more complex hardware solutions and restrictions on drive field amplitude…

Small-Angle Scattering (SAS) investigates structures in samples that generally range from approximately 0.5 nm to a few 100 nm. This can both be done for isotropic samples such as blends and liquids, as well as anisotropic samples such as…
We analyze theoretically the resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS) at the Ni K edge in the stripe-ordered state of La_{2-x}Sr_xNiO_4 at x=1/3. In the calculation of RIXS spectra, the stripe-ordered ground state is described within the…
Although the surface of a magnetar is a source of bright thermal X-rays, its spectrum contains substantial non-thermal components. The X-ray emission is pulsed, with pulsed fractions that can be as high as ~ 70%. Several properties of…
This paper investigates a source coding problem in which two terminals communicating through a relay wish to estimate one another's source within some distortion constraint. The relay has access to side information that is correlated with…

Faraday rotation measure at radio wavelengths is commonly used to diagnose large-scale magnetic fields. It is argued that the length-scales on which magnetic fields vary in large-scale diffuse astrophysical media can be inferred from…
The current literature is rather vague regarding how to calculate the exact numerical value of the resonant ion scattering cross-section that should be used for a specific bandpass of finite width. Such a value was needed in order to…
