Osselet aux rayons X: une nouvelle technique révèle ses structures en un temps record
Des scientifiques du PSI démontrent avec un osselet comment les structures de matériaux biologiques peuvent être analysées en un temps record, de l’échelle nanométrique à l’échelle millimétrique.
Chiral phonons in polar LiNbO3
Resonant inelastic x-ray scattering reveals that lattice vibrations can be chiral in a polar material, with phonons having opposite handedness depending on their direction in momentum space.
Synchronising ultrashort X-ray pulses
Attosecond coherent pulses at SwissFEL will open new experimental possibilities
