The properties of artificially grown thin films are often strongly affected by the dynamic relationship between surface growth processes and subsurface structure. Coherent mixing of X-ray signals promises to provide an approach to better…
We study chaotic properties of eigenstates for periodic quasi-1D waveguides with "regular" and "random" surfaces. Main attention is paid to the role of the so-called "gradient scattering" which is due to large gradients in the scattering…
Although the drainage and spreading processes of thin liquid films on substrates have received growing attention during the last decades, the study of three-dimensional cases is limited to a few studies on flat and axisymmetric substrates.…
Laterally periodic nanostructures were investigated with grazing incidence small angle X-ray scattering. To support an improved reconstruction of nanostructured surface geometries, we investigated the origin of the contributions to the…
We demonstrate a technique that allows highly surface sensitive imaging of nanostructures on planar surfaces over large areas, providing a new avenue for research in materials science, especially for \textit{in situ} applications. The…
We demonstrate a strategy for simulating wide-range X-ray scattering patterns, which spans the small- and wide scattering angles as well as the scattering angles typically used for Pair Distribution Function (PDF) analysis. Such simulated…
In this paper, we propose using the scattering surface area rather than the scattering cross section to characterize the scattering behavior of ellipsoidal rigid bodies. We examined the scattering behavior of ellipsoidal rigid bodies,…
Differential evolution indicators are introduced for 3D spatiotemporal imaging of micromechanical processes in complex materials where progressive variations due to manufacturing and/or aging are housed in a highly scattering background of…
Small-angle X-ray scattering from GaN nanowires grown on Si(111) is studied experimentally and modeled by means of Monte Carlo simulations. It is shown that the scattering intensity at large wave vectors does not follow Porod's law…
Surface roughness and dielectric properties are crucial in characterizing radar backscattering from bare soil surfaces. However, their estimation depends on the surface size of the sampling profile, and the complex relative permittivity is…
We examine theoretically the spreading of a viscous liquid drop over a thin film of uniform thickness, assuming the liquid's viscosity is regulated by the concentration of a solute that is carried passively by the spreading flow. The solute…
A scheme for analyzing Thomson scattering of x-rays by warm dense matter, based on the average-atom model, is developed. Emphasis is given to x-ray scattering by bound electrons. Contributions to the scattered x-ray spectrum from elastic…
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…
This article explores how a rigid top surface with diffuse and oblique collimated irradiation affect isotropic scattering algal suspensions. When the fluid flow becomes zero, the suspension reaches a steady (basic) state where up-and-down…
Diffuse soft X-ray line emission is commonly used to trace the thermal and chemical properties of the hot interstellar medium, as well as its content, in nearby galaxies. Although resonant line scattering complicates the interpretation of…
Mutual scattering arises when multiple waves intersect within a finite scattering object, resulting in cross-interference between the incident and scattered waves. By measuring mutual scattering, we determine the complex-valued scattering…
We studied the resonant diffraction signal from stepped surfaces of SrTiO3 at the Ti 2p -> 3d (L2,3) resonance in comparison with x-ray absorption (XAS) and specular reflectivity data. The steps on the surface form an artificial…
Turbulent flow over a surface with streamwise-elongated rough and smooth stripes is studied by means of direct numerical simulation (DNS) in a periodic plane open channel with fully resolved roughness. The goal is to understand how the mean…
The diffraction spectrum of coherent waves scattered from fractal supports is calculated exactly. The fractals considered are of the class generated iteratively by successive dilations and translations, and include generalizations of the…
High energy (67 keV) x-ray diffuse scattering measurements were performed on single crystals of Pb(Zn$_{1/3}$Nb$_{2/3}$)O$_3$-$x$PbTiO$_3$ (PZN-$x$PT). A novel technique was developed to map out the diffuse scattering distribution in all…
