The total scattering structure factors of pure liquid n-pentanol, pentanal, and 5 of their mixtures, as determined by high energy synchrotron X-ray diffraction experiments, are presented. For the interpretation of measured data, molecular…

Methanol-water liquid mixtures have been investigated by high-energy synchrotron X-ray and neutron diffraction at low temperatures. We are thus able to report the first complete sets of both X-ray and neutron weighted total scattering…

Aqueous mixtures of 1-propanol have been investigated by high-energy synchrotron X-ray diffraction upon cooling. X-ray weighted total scattering structure factors of 6 mixtures, from 8 mol% to 89 mol% alcohol content, as well as that of…

There are various routes for deriving partial radial distribution functions of disordered systems from experimental diffraction (and/or EXAFS) data. Due to limitations and errors of experimental data, as well as to imperfections of the…

Results of X-ray diffraction experiments on solid oxygen at low temperature and at pressures up to 10 GPa are presented.A careful sample preparation and annealing around 240 K allowed to obtain very good diffraction patterns in the…

Simulation (molecular dynamics and Car-Parrinello [Phys. Rev. Lett. 55, 2471 (1985)]) and diffraction (x-ray and neutron) studies on nitromethane are compared aiming at the determination of the liquid structure. Beyond that, the…

We have developed x-ray diffraction measurements with high energy-resolution and accuracy to study water structure at three different temperatures (7, 25 and 66 C) under normal pressure. Using a spherically curved Ge crystal an energy…

Grazing-incidence X-ray diffraction data are combined with energy-minimization calculations to analyse the atomic structure of the Al-rich (3sqrt{3} x 3sqrt{3})R 30 deg reconstructed surface of sapphire alpha-Al_2O_3(0001). The experiments…

Established x-ray diffraction methods allow for high-resolution structure determination of crystals, crystallized protein structures or even single molecules. While these techniques rely on coherent scattering, incoherent processes like…
