Talk

The thermal beamport SR8 at the research neutron source Heinz Maier-Leibnitz (FRM II) will be optimized and completely rebuilt in the coming year. This will allow the simultaneous operation of the three independent monochromatic powder diffractometers SPODI, FIREPOD and ERWIN at this beamport. The unique characteristics of each of the three versatile instruments, which will be able to cater...

109. Linking Diffraction Techniques with XRF and XAS Spectroscopy at the German CRG Beamline ROBL / ESRF

Talk

The recent upgrade of the Rossendorf Beamline [1] at ESRF allows simultaneous collection of diffraction (SCXRD and PXRD) and spectroscopy (XRF and XANES). We will present some recent results to demonstrate the experimental opportunities.

240. Noble X-rays: choosing the correct X-ray wavelength for the best single-crystal structures

Martin Adam (Bruker)

Talk

Continuous development in microfocus sources means that this technology remains the most versatile and widely used for single crystal X-ray diffraction. Small, high intensity beams of several wavelengths allow the crystallographer to match the experimental demands and ensure that the most accurate structures can be obtained from a variety of crystal types. We will briefly discuss how selection...

26. Operando diffraction studies of mechanocatalytic reactions: challenges, technical developments and scientific insights

Advances in Methods, Instrumentation and Data Analysis

Talk

Mechanochemistry has become an important method for the synthesis and conversion of materials. Extending the mechanical impact to catalysis opens a broad area of new reaction pathways. In this contribution, three examples for the successful development and implementation of an in situ mechanochemical setup for synchrotron sources will be discussed.

98. Quantum cascade laser-based infrared spectrometer combined with small angle neutron scattering for life science applications.

Biologic Structure, Function, Reactivity, and Regulation

Talk

Using the amide I band, infrared spectroscopy can give information on the fold of the protein and also allows to follow aggregation phenomena. Small angle neutron scattering also reports on the global structure of proteins in solution and can give information on the shape of growing aggregates or folded proteins in solution. We would like to explore the capabilities of quantum cascade lasers...
