Overview

Understanding and manipulating the properties of materials naturally occurring in our world and artificially produced by modern technologies requires detailed information on their properties on the atomic scale. This information is the basis for any kind of research in physics, chemistry, biology, engineering, metallurgy, and ceramics. Among the various experimental methods, neutron and photon scattering are key techniques. An overview of the complementarity between neutron and synchrotron X-ray scattering. Topics covered include: structure determination; magnetic correlations; polymer dynamics; thin films and multilayers; and photoemission studies. The topics are thoroughly introduced and discussed by experts from both the experimental and the theoretical side.
